FREEZER CARE
In Case of Extended Power Failure
Keep freezer lid closed. Your freezer will keep food frozen for 24 hours
provided warm air is not admitted.
If freezer is out of operation for 24 hours or more, add dry ice. Leave ice
in large pieces. Add more ice as required.
CAUTION
gloves or other protection is recommended.
If dry ice is not available, move food to a frozen food locker temporarily—
until power is restored.
Preparing to Move
Turn the temperature control to OFF. Disconnect the power cord plug
from the wall outlet. Remove foods, defrost and clean the freezer.
Secure all loose items such as baskets by taping them securely in place to
prevent damage.
Be sure freezer stays in upright position during actual moving and during
transportation. The freezer must be secured during transportation to
prevent movement. Protect outside of freezer with blanket.
Preparing For Vacation
To maintain freezer in operation during vacations, be sure your house
power is not turned off. For sure protection of freezer contents, you may
want to ask a neighbor to check the power supply and freezer operation
every 24 hours.
For extended vacations or absences, you may prefer to move your frozen
foods to a storage locker temporarily. If your freezer is to be left empty,
disconnect power cord plug from wall outlet. To prevent formation of
odors, place open box of baking soda in freezer and leave freezer lid open.
