OPERATING YOUR REFRIGERATOR 

 
Temperature Control  

1.  The temperature control (thermostat knob, turned by coin) is located near the top 

of the unit. 

2.  Turning the thermostat knob adjusts the temperature of the freezer. 
3.  The marks on the knob represent different settings. Setting “1” is the warmest and 

setting “4” is the coolest.  

4.  The factory recommended setting is “2” for normal operating conditions.   
 
 
 
 
 
 
 

Tips and Hints  

1.  Fresh foods such as fish and meat can be frozen to maintain freshness, and keep 

the nutrients in the food. 

2.  Food should be wrapped in aluminum foil, or some other type of airtight packing. 
3.  Do not allow frozen food in freezer to touch foods just placed into freezer.  It can 

damage the food. 

4.  Frozen foods from the store should be placed in the freezer promptly, so they do 

not thaw. 

5.  Never place fresh vegetables and fruits into the freezer as they can get freezer 

burn. 

Defrosting 

1.  When the freezer operates for a long period of time, the surface of the evaporator 

and the drawers may become covered with a layer of white frost. This frost will 
reduce the energy efficiency of the unit, and make the freezer less effective.  When 
this frost forms, it should be promptly removed. 

2.  When defrosting, unplug the freezer, and remove all food from the freezer. Either 

allow the frost to melt naturally from the warm air in the room, or carefully use a 
plastic scraper.  Finally, wipe away any remaining ice and water, plug the freezer 
in, and return the food to the freezer. 

  CAUTION

:  Never use sharp tools to chip ice away.
