TEMPERATURE CONTROL

Electromechanical Temperature Control (Chest and Some Upright Models)

The electromechanical temperature control is located in- side the freezer on upright models, and on the left exterior wall on chest models (see figure 1). The temperature is factory preset to provide satisfactory food storage temper- atures. However, the temperature control is adjustable to provide a range of temperatures for your personal satisfac- tion. To adjust the temperature setting, turn the tempera- ture control knob clockwise or counter clockwise. Allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize between adjustments.

•The freezer should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances

or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.

•Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the

freezer. Overloading the freezer 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 freezer. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the freezer.

Freezer shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer 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.

COOL DOWN PERIOD

•For safe food storage, allow 4 hours for the freezer to cool down completely. The freezer will run continuously for the first several hours. Foods that are already frozen may be placed in the freezer after the first few hours of operation. Unfrozen foods should NOT be loaded into the freezer until the freezer has operated for 4 hours.

When loading the freezer, freeze only 3 pounds of fresh food per cubic foot of freezer space at one time. Distribute packages to be frozen evenly throughout the freezer. It is not necessary to turn the control knob to a colder setting while freezing food.

Electromechanical Control

Figure 1

Standard Electronic Temperature Control (Some Up- right Frost Free Models)

The standard electronic temperature control is located outside the freezer (see Figure 2). Temperature is factory preset to provide satisfactory food storage temperatures. To adjust the temperature setting, press the UP (A) symbol for colder temperatures and DOWN (v) symbol for warmer temperatures on the control panel. Allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize between adjustments.

To turn off freezer, press DOWN

(v)symbol until display shows "0". To activate freezer, press UP (A) until display shows "4" or desired setting.

To keep the temperature setting from being accidentally changed, the control may be locked. This is done by pressing "Alarm Reset" for 3 seconds. "L" will then appear on display. To unlock the control, press "Alarm Reset" for 3 seconds. For the first second, "U" will appear, and then the current temperature will appear.
