Setting the Temperature Control
•
To control the internal temperature, adjust the
control dials according to the ambient temperature or
purpose of use.
•
The first time you turn the unit on, set the
temperature control to “FAST FREEZE”.
•
After 24 to 48 hours, adjust the temperature control
to the setting that best suits your needs.
•
Do not leave the unit set at FAST FREEZE as the
compressor will continue to run continuously and
energy consumption will be affected.
•
The setting of “4 - 5” should be correct for home or office refrigerator use.
•
The range of the temperature control is from position “1” the warmest to “7” the coldest in the
freezer section.
•

NOTE:
•
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.

Defrosting Your Freezer
•
When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the freezer
when the frost on the freezer walls is excessive or ¼ to ½ inch thick.
•
Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low.
CAUTION
Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never use a
sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils and will void
the warranty. We recommend using the plastic scraper provided with your unit.
•
Remove the frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
•
Unplug the freezer. The “POWER ON INDICATOR” light should be OFF.
•
During defrosting, the ice melts into the cabinet.
•
Remove the drain plug on the inside floor of the freezer by pulling straight out.
•
Place a shallow pan outside drain outlet. The defrost water will drain out.
•
Check the pan occasionally so the water does not overflow.
•
Clean the interior of the freezer.
•
Replace the plug on the inside floor.
•
Reconnect electrical connection. The “POWER ON INDICATOR” light should be ON
•
Reset the thermostat to desired setting.
