OPERATING YOUR FREEZER Temperature Control • Your freezer has one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature control is located on the lower right hand corner. • The first time you turn the unit on, turn the temperature control knob in a clockwise direction to the maximum setting "5" and run for at least 2 hours before putting frozen foods inside. This will ensure the cabinet is thoroughly chilled before food is put in. • The range of the temperature control is from position "1" the warmest to "5" the coldest. Adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suits your needs. The setting of "3" should be correct for home or office freezer use. • To turn the freezer off, turn the temperature control to "OFF". NOTE: • Turning the temperature control to "OFF" position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off the power to the freezer. • If the unit is unplugged, lost power, or turned off; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the freezer will not start. • Large amounts of food will lower the cooling efficiency of the appliance. • If you choose to change the thermostat setting, adjust thermostat control by one numerical increment at a time. Allow several hours for temperature to stabilize between adjustments. The Fast Freeze Switch (Amber) • The light glows while the Fast Freeze switch is in the 'ON' position. • The switch overrides the thermostat and will make the compressor operate continuously, lowering the cabinet temperature still further than the thermostat setting. • This switch is used to freeze unfrozen food in appreciable quantities. • When loading the freezer, freeze only three 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 adjust the thermostat setting when using the Fast Freeze switch. 9
