Built-in Lock (on some models)
• A built-in lock allows you to keep your food supply secure if necessary.

• This type of lock is spring loaded, preventing the key from being left in the lock.

Some models feature a temperature monitor that provides an audible alarm. The temperature monitor
alarm is located above the temperature control. The alarm sounds if the temperature in the freezer rises
10°F or more above normal for selected setting. Alarm may sound if the temperature control dial is turned
to a much lower/colder setting or if a large amount of unfrozen food is added at one time. Alarm is
controlled by a three position switch.
· 0 or OFF prevents alarm from sounding when freezer is warm, such
as during initial start-up or defrosting.
·
or TEST sounds alarm regardless of temperature. Alarm system
should be tested at least once a month.
· 1 or ON is proper setting for normal freezer use. Return switch to 1
after defrosting.
