Check that your old appliance had a sliding hinge, or that your cabinet door has pre-drilled holes for one, or this model won't fit. Before installing, allow the freezer to stand upright for at least 2 hours to allow the refrigerant to settle.

  3. Care & Maintenance:
  • Defrosting: Manually defrost the freezer when ice builds up, usually every few months. Unplug the unit, remove all food, and allow the ice to melt. Clean and dry the interior before restarting.
  • Cleaning: Wipe the interior with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  • Door Seals: Keep the door seals clean to maintain an airtight seal and prevent energy loss.
