This Owner’s Guide provides operating
instructions for your model. Use your
freezeronlyasinstructedinthisOwner’s
Guide.
Energy Saving Ideas • The freezer should be installed in coolest area of the room, away from heat
producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in freezer. Overloading
thefreezerforcesthecompressortorunlonger. Foodsthatfreezetooslowlymay
lose quality or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly and wipe containers dry before placing them in
the freezer. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the freezer.
• Freezer shelves and baskets should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper,
or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer
less efficient.
• Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches.

Avoid Service Checklist Before calling for service, review this list. It may save you both time and
expense. This list includes common occurrences that are not the result of
defective workmanship or materials in this appliance.
This freezer must not be plugged into a circuit that has ground fault interrupt. If you are
unsure about the outlet, have it checked by a certified technician.
Temperature control is in the OFF position. See Setting the Temperature Control Section.
Freezer may not be plugged in, or plug may be loose. Be sure plug is tightly pushed into
electrical outlet.
House fuse has blown, or circuit breaker has tripped. Check/reset circuit breaker, or replace
fuse with 15 amp. time delay fuse.
Power outage. Check house lights. Call local electric company.
Room or outside weather is hot. It is normal for the freezer to work harder under these
conditions.
Freezer had recently been disconnected for a period of time. Freezer requires 4 hours to cool
down completely.
Large amounts of warm or hot food have been stored recently. Warm food will cause the
freezer to run more until the desired temperature is reached.

Freezer door may be slightly open. See Occurrence “Door Problems.”
Temperaturecontrolis settoocold. Turnthecontrol knobtoa warmersetting.Allowseveral
hours for the temperature to stabilize.
Freezer gasket is dirty, worn, cracked, or poorly fitted. Clean or change gasket. Leaks in the
door seal will cause freezer to run longer in order to maintain desired temperature.
Temperature control is set too cold. Turn the control to a warmer setting. Allow several
hours for the temperature to stabilize.
Temperature control is set too warm. Turn the control to a colder setting. Allow several
hours for the temperature to stabilize.
Door is kept open too long or is opened too frequently. Warm air enters the freezer every

Large amounts of warm or hot food might have been stored recently. Wait until the freezer
has had a chance to reach its selected temperature.
Freezer has recently been disconnected for a period of time. Freezer requires 4 hours to cool
down completely.
The exterior freezer walls can be as much as 30°F warmer than room temperature. This is
normal while the compressor works to transfer heat from inside the freezer cabinet.
Modern freezers have increased storage capacity and more even temperatures. They
require a high efficiency compressor. When the surrounding noise level is low, you might
hear the compressor running while it cools the interior.
Freezer operates at higher pressures during the start of the ON cycle. This is normal. Sound
will level off or disappear as freezer continues to run.
Metal parts undergo expansion and contraction, as in hot water pipes. This is normal. Sound
will level off or disappear as freezer continues to run.

Weather is hot and humid, which increases internal rate of frost build-up. This is normal.
Door is slightly open. See Occurrence “Door Problems.”
Door is kept open too long, or is opened too frequently. Open the door less often.
Door is slightly open, causing the cold air from inside the freezer to meet warm moist air from
outside. See “Door Problems” in the Occurrence Section.
Interior needs to be cleaned. Clean interior with sponge, warm water, and baking soda.
Foods with strong odors are in the freezer. Cover the food tightly.
Freezer is not level. It rocks on the floor when it is moved slightly. This condition can force the
