POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your
appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a
longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect the contents.
VACATION TIME
Short Vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
Long Vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off the
appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door open
slightly, blocking it open if necessary.
MOVING YOUR APPLIANCE
1.
Remove all items.
2.
Securely tape down all loose items (shelves) inside your appliance.
3.
Turn the adjustable legs up to the base to avoid damage.
4.
Tape the door shut.
5.
Be sure the appliance stays secure in the upright position during transportation. Also protect the
outside of the appliance with a blanket or similar item.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room or outdoor location, away from heat -
producing appliances and out of direct sunlight.
Ensure that the unit is adequately ventilated. Never cover air vents. Do not keep the door open any
longer than necessary.
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the unit. Overloading the unit forces the
compressor to run longer.
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit. This cuts down
on frost build up inside the unit.
Unit shelves and storage bins should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the unit less efficient.
Organize and label stored items to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items
as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
