Cool Down Period
For safe food storage, allow four (4) hours for freezer to cool
down completely. The freezer will run continuously for the first
several hours. Foods that are already frozen may be placed in
the freezer after the first few hours of operation. Unfrozen foods
should NOT be loaded into the freezer until freezer has operated
for four (4) hours.
When loading freezer, freeze only three (3) 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.
The convertible model can operate as either a freezer or a
refrigerator. The selection is made using the rocker switch on the
top of the panel as shown in Figure 1.
Pushing the switch to the "F" position will engage the freezer
control on the left and pushing the switch to the "R" position will
engage the refrigerator control on the right side. Positioning the
switch in the middle position will disengage both freezer and
refrigerator controls and disable all cooling functions. The light, if
equipped, will still operate.
Automatic Freeze Control
When in the refrigerator mode the Freeze Control Feature will
maintain proper interior refrigerator temperature even when the
refrigerator is placed in an area where the surrounding temperature
drops to 10°F (-12°C).
