Initial Loading
Remove and set aside inner sublids prior to loading. Allow the
freezer to operate at the desired temperature for a minimum
of 12 hours before loading.
• Load the freezer one shelf at a time, beginning with the
bottom. After loading each shelf, allow the freezer to

shelf. Repeat this process until the freezer is fully loaded.
After fully loaded, replace the inner sublids to ensure
temperature control.
• Altitude up to 2000 m.
• Maximum relative humidity 60% for temperatures within
15°C to 32°C (59°F to 90°F).
• Main supply voltage fluctuations not to exceed ±10% of
the nominal voltage for 115 V/60 Hz, 230 V/50 Hz &
200V/60Hz.
• Main supply voltage fluctuations not to exceed -10% or
+6% of the nominal voltage for 208-230 V/60 Hz.
• Main supply voltage fluctuations not to exceed -5% or
+10% of the nominal voltage for 100 V/60 Hz.
