not operate consistently
when placed for an ex-
tended period of time in
a location below the cold
end of the range of tem-
perature for which the
appliance is designed.

unsure about the outlet, have it
checked by a qualified electrician.
• See CONTROLS AND
SETTINGS section.

the outlet.
• Check/replace fuse with a
15-amp time delay fuse. Reset
circuit breaker.

er is hot.

or too long.
• Lid may be

cracked, or poorly fitted.
• Freeze Boost switch is ON.
• It’s normal for the appliance to work
longer under these conditions.
• It takes 4 hours for the appliance
to cool down completely.
• Warm food will cause freezer to
run more until the desired tem-

• Warm air entering the appliance
causes it to run more. Open door
less often.
• Ensure door is tightly closed.
• Turn temperature control knob to a
warmer setting. Allow several hours

in door seal will cause the appli-
ance to run longer in order to
maintain desired temperatures.
