Cool Down Period
• For safe food storage, allow 4 hours for freezer to cool down completely. The freezer
will run continuously for the first several hours. Foods that are already frozen may be
placed in freezer after the first few hours of operation. Unfrozen foods should NOT
be loaded into freezer until freezer has operated for 4 hours.
• When loading 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 control knob to a colder setting while freezing food.
Temperature Contro
The temperature control is located inside the freezer on upright models, and on the left
outside wall on chest models. The temperature is factory preset to provide satisfactory
food storage temperatures. However, the temperature control is adjustable to provide
a range of temperatures for your personal satisfaction. If a colder temperature is de-
sired, turn the temperature control knob toward COLDEST and allow several hours for
temperatures to stabilize between adjustments.
