•Make sure that the freezer has plenty of ventilation around it. Some freezers use their outer surface as a heat sink and placing boxes or other objects next to them prevents them from being able to get rid of heat.
•Make sure the freezer is level. Water from condensation needs to be able to drain properly inside the freezer if applicable and having the freezer on an uneven floor can prevent proper drainage of the coils.

FREEZER ALARM WILL NOT SHUT OFF

You can try 2 things. Unplug it for about 2-3 minutes and then replug it. It should reset itself. You can silence the alarm or muffle it. Silencing it should be hard. Disconnect it from its source. You may want to find out why it is alarming constantly. Have you called Sears and asked them?

Freezer runs constantly

not necessarily, is it maintaining temp? all food staying frozen? especially ice creams if stored in there. most newer freezers displace the heat generated while cooling the food through copper lines running through sides of unit, helps to cut down on air temp differences between the inside (0 degrees) and outside temp to prevent moisture and possible condensation causing premature rusting of unit
