Problem Possible Cause and Remedy
Freezer temperature
display shows two
dashes ‘‘- -”.
The freezer temperature display will only show temperatures that are
below freezing. When initially starting the freezer it will not be below
freezing. It will take three to five hours (depending on ambient conditions)
for freezing temperatures to be achieved and thus displayed numerically.
This may also occur after a power failure.
