A:AnswerHello there,
Your freezer’s compressor moves refrigerant through the appliance, generating heat as it runs. This heat dissipates to the sides of the freezer, helping prevent moisture from forming on the outside of the appliance. As a result, the exterior walls may sometimes feel hot to the touch. As your refrigerator cycles on and off to maintain the appropriate temperature, the outside walls may feel warmer or cooler at different times. This is a normal and necessary function of your appliance.
Renee,

A:AnswerI have mine in the side kitchen. Works just fine and beats walking out to the garage. I would only have the freezer plugged into the 1 outlet though so it doesn't trip. Hope this helps!
A:AnswerJust pull along the bottom edge of the panel at the hole where the cord will come out when you close it again. It just pops open and swings up. Then push it closed again over the freed up cord. I suppose you could coil excess cord in their for neatness but I didn't bother.

A:AnswerHi, I started in the middle but it wasn't getting cold fast enough for what I needed, switched it to max which worked great and now keep it just over the middle mark. Great freezer!!
