About the operation of your freezer.
Starting the Freezer
1
Clean the inside of the freezer with a mild solution of baking soda and water (see Care and Cleaning).
2
Connect cord to power outlet.
3
Make sure the temperature control is set at 4.
4
Allow freezer to operate for at least four hours before placing food inside.
Temperature Control
Freezing temperature selection is made by
setting the control from 1 to 7 (coldest).
If you want colder or warmer temperatures,
adjust the control one step at a time.
Allow several hours after each one-step
adjustment for the freezer temperature to
stabilize.
Turning the control to the OFF position stops
the cooling process but does not shut off power
to the freezer.
