we suggest you
follow these four steps:

Before calling for assistance.. .
Performance problems often result from
little things you can find and fix yourself with-
out tools of any kind.
If electrlclty goes off:
Learn how long power will be off by calling the

If service is to be interrupted 24 hours or less,
keep freezer closed. Most food will stay frozen.
If service is to be interrupted longer than 24
hours, do this:
(a) Remove all frozen food and store in a fro-
zen food locker. Or...
[b) Place dry ice on top of food, using as large
pieces as possible. Protect your hands with
gloves when using dry ice.
[c) If neither food locker storage nor dry ice is
available, use or can perishable food at
once.
The length of time food will stay frozen de-
pends on several factors. For instance: a full
treezer will remain cold longer than a freezer
only partially filled. And a freezer full of meat
will stay cold longer than a freezer filled with
baked goods. Also, if the food still contains
ice crystals, it may be safely refrozen, al-
though the quality and flavor may be af-
fected. Use this food as soon as convenient. If
the condition of the food is poor or is any way
questionable, it is wise to dispose of it.
If freezer stops running:
If motor seems to run too long:
1. If large amounts of unfrozen food have been
put into the freezer, motor will run longer.
2. On hot summer days or if room is hot, motor
will run longer to provide correct amount of
cooling.
If freezer feels warm:
During normal operating conditions the freezer
transfers heat removed from food packages and
air space to the outside room air. The freezer cab-
inet may feel warm.
