NOTE

Your freezer may have some or all of

the optional features described below.

Become familiar with these features and

their use and care.

Power On Light

The green Power On indicator light indicates

that the freezer is properly connected to

electrical power. The light glows even when

the temperature control is turned to OFF. If

the light goes out, refer to Freezer Does Not

Run Section in the Troubleshooting Guide.

If the freezer appears to be operating,

the light element may be burned out. Call

1-800-4-MY-HOME (469-4663) to schedule

replacement service.

Cool Down Period

• For safe food storage, allow four hours

for the freezer to cool down completely.

The freezer will run continuously for the

rst several hours. Foods that are already

frozen may be placed in the freezer after

the rst few hours of operation. Unfrozen

foods should NOT be loaded into the

freezer until the freezer has operated for

four hours.

• When loading the freezer, freeze only

three pounds of fresh food per cubic foot

of freezer space at one time. Distribute

packages to be frozen evenly throughout

the freezer. It is not necessary to turn the

control knob to a colder setting while

freezing food.

Temperature Control

The temperature control is located

inside the freezer on upright models,

and on the front exterior wall on chest

models. The temperature is factory preset

to provide satisfactory food storage

temperatures. However, the temperature

control is adjustable to provide a range of

temperatures for your personal satisfaction.

If a colder temperature is desired, turn the

temperature control knob toward MAX and

allow several hours for temperatures to

stabilize between adjustments.

freezer. This cuts down on frost build-up

inside the freezer.

• Freezer shelves should not be lined with

aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper

toweling. Liners interfere with cold air

circulation, making the freezer less ecient.

• Organize and label food to reduce door

openings and extended searches. Remove

as many items as needed at one time, and

close the door as soon as possible.
