1.Before freezing large quantities of food, turn Cold Control to highest position and let freezer operate for several hours.

2.To speed freezing, lay packages in a sin- gle layer so each rests on the freezing surface of a shelf. Leave space between packages.

3.Add more unfrozen food after first load is

frozen (approximately 18 to 24 hours).

4.After all food is frozen, return Cold Control to the usual setting.

Storing frozen food .. .

After food is frozen, stack packages any- where in the freezer. Packages should not extend beyond the shelf edge or they may keep the door from closing and sealing properly.

Door storage -Store packages on the door shelves behind the retaining bar.

Energy Saving Tips...

l Check door gasket and level freezer to as- sure a good door seal.

l Keep door openings to a minimum. Re- move several items at one time. Keep con- tents organized to eliminate searching.

l Fill to capacity. Follow recommended pro- cedures for freezing foods.

l Set Cold Control to provide temperatures around 0 F (-22-C). There is no need to store foods below 0 F.

lDo not let frost build up to more than % Inch (6 mm] thick. Efficiency is reduced.
