GE FUF12 Freezer User Manual

This feature is designed to provide a warning
if the inside temperature reaches an unsafe
level. The Temp Alarm feature operates on
household electricity. It will not function if
household electricity is interrupted.
When the freezer is initially plugged in, the
red Temp Alarm indicator light blinks. The
indicator light will continue to blink until the
freezer has reached a safe freezing
temperature. If a malfunction causes an
unsafe temperature inside the freezer, the
red light will blink and the buzzer will sound.
To silence the buzzer, press the ALARM OFF
button. The indicator light will continue to
blink until a safe freezing temperature is
again reached. If the problem is not solved
within twelve (12) hours, the buzzer will turn
on again. If the ALARM OFFbutton is not
pressed, the buzzer will turn itself off
automatically after 48 hours, but the red
Temp Alarm light will continue to blink.
High-Temp Alarm Switch (on some models)
An alarm will sound if the freezer
temperature reaches unsafe levels. The
alarm operates on household electricity. If
the power fails, the alarm will not perform.
An ON/OFF switch allows the temperature
alarm to be deactivated if desired. The freezer
is shipped with the switch in the OFF position.
After the freezer has run long enough to
lower the temperature, you may set the
switch to the ON position.
CAUTION: Adding more than 3 pounds
(1.5 kg) of warm food per cubic foot of
freezer capacity can trigger the alarm.
To activate the alarm, set the switch to the
ON position.
To deactivate the alarm, set the switch to
the OFF position.
Convertible Freezer/Refrigerator (some Upright Frost-Free models)
The convertible model can operate as either a
refrigerator or a freezer. The selection is made
using the switch at the back of the unit
marked F and R. With the switch in the F
position, the freezer controls below this switch
and to the left become active. With the switch
in the R position, the refrigerator controls
below this switch and to the right become
active. Placing the switch in the middle
position will turn off the unit completely and
will disable all cooling functions.
The temperature on this model is preset. To
adjust the temperature, push the UP button
for warmer and the DOWN button for cooler
temperatures. Allow several hours for the
temperature to stabilize between
adjustments.
When in the refrigerator mode, the Freeze
Control Feature maintains proper interior
refrigerator temperature even if placed in an
area where the temperature is 10
°
F (-12
°
C).
