About the operation of your freezer.

Convertible Freezer/Refrigerator (some Upright Frost-Free models)

Instructions Safety

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).

Electronic Temperature Alarm (some Electronic Chest models)

Consumer Support Troubleshooting

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 OFF button is not pressed, the buzzer will turn itself off automatically after 48 hours, but the red Temp Alarm light will continue to blink.
