Using your freezer
Adjusting Cold Control...
l
Turn control to higher number for colder
temperatures.
l
Turn to lower number for less cold temperatures.
Setting the Cold Control...
1. Insert a coin in the slot of the Cold Control to
turn it.
2. Turn control to Number 3. This setting will main-
tain zero zone temperatures under normal op-
erating conditions.
Cooling Freezer First...
l
Allow freezer to cool 6 to B hours before filling
with frozen food.
l
Let it cool overnight before adding large
amount of unfrozen food.
Note: When freezer is first started the compressor
will run constantly until the cabinet is cooled. It
may take up to 6 to B hours or longer, depending
on room temperature and the number of times
the freezer lid is opened.
After the cabinet is cooled the compressor will
turn on and off as needed to keep freezer at
proper temperature.
The outside of your freezer may feel warm. This
is normal. The freezer’s design and main function
is to remove heat from packages and air space
inside the freezer. This heat is transferred to the
room air so the walls of the freezer may be warm.
Exterior Signal light...
automatically warns of any unexpected power
failure.
