INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Before Using your Appliance

  • Remove the exterior and interior packing.

  • Before connecting the appliance to the power source, let it stand upright for approximately 2 hours.
    This will reduce the possibility of a malfunction in the cooling system from handling during transportation.

  • Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.

  • Install the handle on the door, if it is not already attached. (See page 8.)

Installation of your Appliance

  • The appliance is designed for built-in or recessed or freestanding installation for indoor use only.
  • Place your appliance on a floor that is strong enough to support it when it is fully loaded. To level the unit, adjust the front leveling legs.
  • For freestanding installation, 5” (127mm) of space between the back and sides of the unit, and 4” (102mm) at the top, are suggested, which allows the proper air circulation to cool the compressor and condenser. Even for built-in installation, it is a must to keep ¼” (6.35mm) space on each side and at the top and 2” (51mm) at the rear. Take care that the air vent at the front of the appliance is never covered or blocked in any way.

NOTE: It is recommended that you do not install the appliance near an oven, radiator, or another heating source. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating and heat sources may increase electrical consumption. Don’t install in a location where the temperature will fall below 60°F (16°C). For best performance, do not install the appliance behind a cabinet door or block the base grille.

  • Avoid locating the unit in moist areas.
  • Plug the appliance into an exclusive, properly grounded wall outlet.

Electrical Connection

WARNING
Improper use of the grounded plug can result in the risk of electrical shock. If the power cord is damaged, have it replaced by a qualified electrician or an authorized service center.
This appliance should be properly grounded for your safety. The power cord of this appliance is equipped with a three-prong plug that mates with standard three-prong wall outlets to minimize the possibility of electrical shock.
Do not under any circumstances cut or remove the third (ground) prong from the power cord supplied. For personal safety, this appliance must be properly grounded. Any questions concerning power and/or grounding should be directed toward a certified electrician or an authorized service center.
This appliance requires a standard 115/120 Volt AC ~60Hz three-prong grounded electrical outlet. Have the wall outlet and circuit checked by a qualified electrician to make sure the outlet is properly grounded? When a standard 2-prong wall outlet is encountered, it is your responsibility and obligation to have it replaced with a properly grounded 3-prong wall outlet.
To prevent accidental injury, the cord should be secured behind the appliance and not left exposed or dangling.
The appliance should always be plugged into its own individual electrical outlet which has a voltage rating that matches the rating label on the appliance. This provides the best performance and also prevents overloading house wiring circuits that could cause a fire hazard from overheating.
Never unplug the appliance by pulling on the power cord. Always grip the plug firmly and pull straight out from the receptacle. Repair or replace immediately all power cords that have become frayed or otherwise damaged. Do not use a cord that shows cracks or abrasion damage along its length or at either end. When moving the appliance, be careful not to damage the power cord.
Extension Cord
Because of potential safety hazards under certain conditions, it is strongly recommended that you do not use an extension cord with this appliance. However, if you must use an extension cord, it is absolutely necessary that it be a UL/CUL-Listed, 3-wire grounding type appliance extension cord having a grounding type plug and outlet and that the electrical rating of the cord is 115 volts and at least 10 amperes.

  • When you use the unit for the first time or restart the unit after it has been shut off for a long time, there could be a few degrees variance between the temperature you select and the one indicated on the Alarm/Thermometer readout. This is normal and is due to the length of the activation time. There should not be a problem once the unit has been running for a few hours.

Temperature Memory Function

  • In the event of a power interruption (power surge, breaker switch, etc.), the unit can remember the previous temperature settings, and when the power is recovered, the cabinet temperature will return to the same set temperature as before the power went off.

Defrosting

  • The unit defrosts automatically in normal operating conditions.
  • The evaporator behind the rear wall of the unit defrosts automatically. The condensate collects in the drainage channel behind the rear wall of the unit and flows through the drainage hole into the drip tray by the compressor where it evaporates.
  • However, frost may accumulate on the evaporator if the unit is repeatedly opened in high heat or high humidity location. If this frost pattern does not clear within 24 hours, your unit will require manual defrosting.

Using the Freezer for ACF33L

  • This unit is designed for the long-term storage of frozen items. It is also suitable for the storage of medicine and medical products that need to be stored frozen. Storage time is up to three months.
  • The storage life of frozen foods varies and the recommended storage time should not be exceeded.
  • Pre-packed commercially frozen food should be stored in accordance with the frozen foods manufacturer’s instructions for a three-star frozen food storage compartment or home freezer.
  • Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there are instructions on the packet, carefully follow these instructions regarding storage times.

Door Alarm
If the door has been left open for more than 60 seconds, the alarm will sound. Pressing the POWER key once or closing the door can switch off the audible alarm.
Door Lock
Your unit is provided with a lock and key combination. The keys are located inside the plastic bag that contains the Instruction Manual. Insert the key into the lock and turn it counter-clockwise to unlock the door. To lock the door, do the reverse operation, making sure the metal pin is engaged completely. Remove the key and put it in a secure place for safekeeping.
Shelves
To prevent damaging the door gasket, make sure to have the door all the way open when pulling the shelves out of the rail compartment.

  • The top and bottom shelves can be removed to store larger items.
  • When removing a shelf from the rail compartment, make sure to remove all stored items first. Then move the shelf to the position where the notch of the shelf is exactly under the plastic post and lift the shelf. In order to replace the shelf, repeat the steps described above in reverse.
  • The center shelf is fixed in place and cannot be removed.
    This is because the glass bead-filled bottle that contains the temperature sensor for your AL-3
    A thermometer/Alarm is best stored in this location. The center of your refrigerator or freezer will provide the most accurate temperature readings. For proper temperature monitoring, keep the bottle in place and do not remove this shelf.

CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning your Appliance

  • Turn off the power, unplug the appliance, and remove all items, including shelves.
  • Wash the inside surfaces with a solution of warm water and baking soda (about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water).
  • Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
  • Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth when cleaning the area where the controls are located, or any electrical parts.
  • Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
  • Use an approved stainless steel cleaner to clean the door and handle. Do not use steel wool or a steel brush on the stainless steel.

CAUTION: Failure to unplug the appliance during cleaning could result in electrical shock or another personal injury .

Power Failure

Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect the contents.

Vacations

  • Short vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
  • Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off the appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.

MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE

  1. Remove all items.
  2. Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
  3. Turn the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
  4. Tape the door shut.
  5. Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also, protect the outside of the appliance with a blanket or similar item.

Energy-Saving Tips

  • The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room or outdoor location. away from heat-producing appliances and out of direct sunlight.
  • Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents.
  • Do not keep the door open any longer than necessary. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible. Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extend searches.
  • Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the compressor to run longer.
  • Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the unit.
  • Unit shelves and storage bins should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the unit less efficient.
