Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your
refrigerator-freezer if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be
off for a longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your food.
Vacation Time
During long absences, remove all the food; unplug your unit, clean your unit, and leave the door open
slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold, or odors.
Moving Your Refrigerator-Freezer
· Remove all the food.
· Securely tape down all loose items inside your unit.
· Turn the leveling screws up to the base to avoid damage.
· Tape the door shut.
· Be sure the unit stays in the upright position during transportation.
Energy Saving Tips
· The unit should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or
heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
· Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the
compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
· Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts
down on frost build-up inside the freezer.
· Freezer storage baskets should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the unit less efficient.
· Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as
needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
Replacing Your Light Bulb
· Unplug the AC power cord from the wall.
· Remove the screw with a Phillips screwdriver.
· Push up the tab underneath the lamp cover.
· Pull down to remove lamp cover.
· Remove the light bulb.
· Replace the light bulb with a similar size (10w).
· Fit the lamp cover back on.
