OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Cooling the Freezer First
After plugging the freezer in, it must run for 3 hours in
order to cool before placing any food inside. Make sure
the cold control knob is set at (Factory Settings).
The cold control knob has been preset at the factory at
the standard operating temperature (position 4). The
freezer temperature may be adjusted by setting the cold
control knob from number 1 (warmest) to number 7
(coldest). Setting the cold control knob at the number
"0" where it clicks will switch off power to the compres-
sor
NOTE: When the cold control knob is set at position "0"
the temperature in the freezer will rise to room
temperature and the freezer contents will defrost.
Setting the cold control knob to number "0"
position (Off) does not remove power to the freezer.
Do not attempt to do any cleaning, repairs or
defrost the freezer without first unplugging the
freezer.
LIGHTS
Interior Light
The interior light is located on the inside of the freezer
lid. The light turns on when the lid is opened and turns
off when the lid is closed. Replacement bulbs may be
obtained through your nearest Sears parts department.
NOTE: Freezers without a cold control knob are preset
at position 4 at the factory and cannot be adjusted.
When the freezer is first started, the compressor will run
constantly until the cabinet is cold. After the cabinet is
cooled the compressor will cycle on and off as needed
to keep the freezer at the set temperature.
The outside of your freezer may feel warm. This is
normal. The freezer's design and main function is to
remove heat from packages and air space inside the
freezer. This heat is transferred to the room air through
the outside walls of the freezer so they usually feel
warm to the touch.
Power Light
The power light is amber in color and is located on the
handle of the freezer. The purpose of the power warning
light is to warn you when there is an interruption in
power to the freezer. When the power light is on, the
freezer is receiving electrical power. If the light is off
there is an absence of power to the freezer (due to
blown fuse tripped circuit breaker, loose power cord,
etc.) This light does not guarantee a sufficiently cold
temperature inside.
IMPORTANT: The power light indicates electrical power
only. It does not indicate that there is a sufficiently cold
temperature inside the freezer.

Cold Control Knob
The cold control knob is located at the lower right hand
side of the cabinet.

the factory and cannot be adjusted.
