SUMMIT APPLIANCE

Installation
When the appliance is to be moved, at least two people should participate. Grasp
the freezer firmly at the base and lift carefully while keeping the unit upright.
Never tilt it more than 45 degrees. Never turn the unit upside down or lay it on its
side, back or front. Never use the door handle as a support as this may damage
the hinges.
1. Install the freezer on a flat, solid surface so as to minimize noise caused by
vibration.
2. Allow for a free flow of air around the unit. A clearance of no less than 2½
inches must be left along the sides, top and back of the freezer.
3. Choose a location where there is no heat source nearby. Keep the freezer
away from direct sunlight, ovens, radiators, etc. In addition, the area should be
dry and free of damp, stale air.
Testing Before Use
1. Wipe the exterior and interior surfaces of the freezer with clear, lukewarm
water mixed with a little mild detergent. Wipe dry.
NOTE: Electrical components should be cleaned with a dry cloth.
2. Using a coin, turn the thermostat knob near the top of the freezer to the "MED"
position, then plug the freezer into the wall outlet. The compressor should
begin to run. Close the door.
3. Check after 30 minutes of operation to be sure that the freezer is cold.
