Does it have to be shipped upright? null

Lying a freezer (or refrigerator) down during transport can cause compressor oil migration, where the lubricant flows out of the compressor and into the refrigeration lines. This is a serious issue because it can lead to compressor damage or failure if the unit is plugged in too soon. Follow the instructions for installation procedures.
