4.4 Installing the shelves
Model U410 HEF and U570 HEF freezers are fitted with four adjustable shelves. Model U725
freezers are fitted with two adjustable shelves. These can be positioned in 12.7 mm (½ in) steps
anywhere throughout the freezer.
To effectively utilize racks within the freezer, be sure to position them so that each shelf is aligned
with the bottom of each inner door.
Perform the following steps to install the shelves:
1. Ensure that the freezer is turned off and unplugged.
2. Remove the protective plastic coating from the shelf.
3. Position the four shelf clips evenly within the freezer by squeezing the clip, then inserting it
into the shelf support within the freezer.
4. Place the shelf in the freezer, making sure all four shelf clips are supporting the weight of the
shelf.
To readjust the shelf or shelf clips, gently squeeze the shelf clip to release it from the side of the
freezer, then reposition it as needed.
4.5 Lockable freezer handle
Freezers are supplied with lockable handles.
The C660 HEF handle is fitted with a quarter turn key lock.
The upright freezer handle is fitted with barrel locks (push in and turn key to lock, turn key to
unlock; the barrel will only lock when a key is turned to the lock position). The barrel lock may be
removed from the upright freezer handle if the lock feature is not required.
An optional padlock adaptor can provide extra security by allowing the addition of a
customer-supplied padlock to secure the freezer handle.
