Freezer Features And Use - Frigidaire EFRF314-C Use & Care Manual

Operating Your Freezer
• Once the freezer is in its proper place, plug it in an electrical outlet having 115 volts
and 15 amps.
• Set the temperature, on the temperature control knob. "1" being the warmest and
"7" being the coldest. Initially set the temperature on "4". Place food inside the
freezer. After using the freezer for 24 hours set the freezer to your desired setting.
• In case you unplug your freezer or experience an electrical outage, allow 5 minutes
before plugging it back in.
General Features
Adjustable temperature dial:
Your freezer will automatically maintain the temperature level you select. The
temperature control dial has 7 settings plus OFF. "1" is the warmest, "7" is the
coldest. Turning the dial to OFF stops cooling the freezer. Set the dial to "4" and
allow 24 hours to pass before adjusting the temperature to your needs.
NOTE: If the freezer has been placed in a horizontal or tilted position for any period
of time wait 24 hours before plugging the unit in.
Normal Operating Sounds You May Hear
• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of the
refrigerant circulating through the cooling coils.
• The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.
Defrosting
• For most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost whenever
the frost becomes 1/4" thick. Never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove
the frost, as it may damage the cooling coils. (A punctured coil will void the
warranty). Use only a plastic scraper. Do not use Mboiling water as it may damage
the unit.
• Remove frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
• Turn the temperature control to OFF position and unplug the unit. Defrosting
usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster keep the freezer door open.
