If you need service or assistance, we suggest yob follow these four steps:
1. Before calling for assistance...
Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any krnd.
If the electricity goes off:
Learn how long the power will be off by calling the power company
lIf servrce ISto be interrupted 24 hours or less, keep the freezer closed Most food WIII stay frozen.
l If sen.lce ISto be Interrupted longer than 24 hours, do this:
1.Remove all unfrozen food and store In a frozen food locker OR...
2.Place 2 Ibs. (0.9 kg) of dry ice in freezer for every cu. ft. of freezer space. This will keep frozen foods for 2 to 4 days. Wear gloves to protect your hands from dry ice burns.
3.If neither food locker storage or dry Ice ISavail- able, use or can perishable food at once.
l The length of time food will stay frozen depends on several factors. For Instance. a full freezer will remain cold longer than a freezer partrally 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 affected Use this food as soon as convenient If the condrtron of the food IS poor or is in any way questionable, it IS wise to dispose of it
If your freezer stops running:
l Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit with the proper voltage? [See page 4 )
l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or crrcurt breaker box7
l Is the Temperature Control turned ON7
If the compressor seems to run too long:
l Isthe condenser, located on the back of the freezer, free of dust and lint?
l Is there enough air circulatron space above and in back of the freezer?
lOn hot summer days or if the room IShot, the com- pressor will run longer to provide the correct amount of cooling.
l If large amounts of unfrozen food have been put into the freezer, the compressor will run longer.
