FREEZER USE
Using the Control
Turn the freezer temperature control to 4. This setting is designed
to maintain the temperature at or near 0°F (-17.8°C) under normal
operating conditions.
Allow the freezer to cool 6 to 8 hours before filling with frozen
food. Let the freezer cool overnight before adding large amounts
of unfrozen food. Never add more than 2 to 3 lbs (0.907 to
1.360 kg) of unfrozen food per cubic foot of freezer space.
NOTE: When the freezer is first started, the compressor will run
constantly until the cabinet is cooled. It may take 6 to 8 hours (or
longer), depending on room temperature and the number of times
the freezer lid is opened.
After the cabinet is cooled, the compressor will turn on and off as
needed to keep the freezer at the proper temperature.
The outside of your freezer may feel warm. This is normal. The
freezer’s design and main function is to remove heat from
packages and air space inside the freezer. The heat is transferred
to the room air, making the outside of the freezer feel warm.
Adjusting the Control
Turn control to a higher number for colder temperatures.
Turn control to a lower number for less cold temperatures.
Temperature Alarm (on some models)
The temperature alarm is located above the temperature control
and sounds an audible alarm if the temperature reaches 10°F
(-12°C) or more above normal for the selected setting. The alarm
is controlled by a three position switch.
To change the temperature alarm setting, move the switch from
one setting to another.
Key Eject Lock
(on some models)
To lock or unlock the freezer, you must hold the key in the lock
while turning. The lock is spring loaded, so the key cannot be left
in the lock.
If the key is lost, contact your dealer for a replacement. Always
give the model and serial number of your freezer when requesting
a replacement key.
Sliding Basket
Store small packages in the basket to avoid losing them in the
bottom of the freezer. The basket can then be moved from side to
side or it can be removed when loading or unloading the food
below it.
To remove basket, lift it straight up and out. To replace basket,
lower basket back into place.
0 Prevents the alarm from sounding when the freezer
is warm, such during start-up or defrosting.
Tests the alarm regardless of temperature.
1 The proper setting for normal freezer use.
