OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE
Ø 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, HAS LOST POWER, OR IS TURNED OFF, YOU MUST WAIT 3
TO 5 MINUTES BEFORE RESTARTING THE UNIT. IF YOU ATTEMPT TO RESTART BEFORE
THIS TIME DELAY, THE REFRIGERATOR-FREEZER WILL NOT START.
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.
Ø 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.
·
Allow the cabinet to cool for one hour.
·
Return food to the freezer.
