TEMPERATURE MODE CHANGE Temperature display can be changed from °F to °C by
pressing the "Temp Display". Press the button again to change it back to the previous mode.
EXTREME FREEZE Extreme Freeze enables the compressor to run
continuously to help cool large quantities of warm (room temperature) foods faster. Always cool down hot foods to
room temperature before placing them in the freezer. Use this feature just prior to adding large quantities of unfrozen foods (not to exceed 3 pounds per cubic foot of freezer
space). For example, do not place more than 45 pounds of
room temperature food into a 15 cubic foot freezer. To activate the Extreme Freeze feature, push the Extreme
Freeze button. The control panel will beep once and the display will show "-F-". See Figure 4.

TEMPERATURE ALARM
If the cabinet temperature rises to a level above 23°F (-5°C), the "Hi Temp" display indicator will illuminate. If the
temperature stays above 23°F (-5°C) for more than one
hour, a high temperature alarm will also be activated. The
control panel will beep every 5 seconds. You may stop the
beep by pressing the Alarm Reset button. The Hi Temp
display indicator will continue to be displayed until the
problem is determined, corrected and temperature once again drops to a level below 23°F (-5°C). During the high temperature condition, the display will show the actual
internal temperature until the set temperature is once again reached. The display will then show only the set temperature.
DOOR AJAR ALARM The door alarm will activate if the door is open for more
than five minutes. There will be an audible beep every five
seconds and the "Door Ajar" indicator will illuminate. Press the Alarm Reset button to turn the audible alarm (beep)
off. The "Door Ajar" indicator will remain on until the door is closed. If the door remains open, audible alarm will sound again after five minutes. If the door remains open for 15
minutes, the interior light will shut off.

SABBATH MODE Sabbath mode provides the ability to disable all lights and
other electrical activity from occurring with the exception of the compressor, which continues to operate automatically. Sabbath mode is started or stopped by pressing the Control Lock and Temp Display buttons at the same time
and holding for three seconds. When started, "Sb" will be displayed for one second and then the display will turn off. When the Sabbath Mode is stopped, the current temperature setting will be displayed and all functions resume normal operation.
MANUAL DEFROST Manual defrost will force the freezer to enter an im-
mediate defrost cycle. The mode can be started or stopped by pressing the Extreme Freeze and Alarm Reset buttons at the same time for five seconds. When active, "dE" is displayed. After thirty minutes, the cycle will complete and the freezer will display the current temperature setting and
resume normal operation.
When power to the freezer is restored after the occur-
rence of a power failure, the "Power Loss" LED will be
illuminated.
If the internal temperature of the freezer has risen to a temperature greater than 23°F (-5°C), the "Hi Temp" display indicator will also be illuminated and there will
be an audible beep every five seconds. Press the Alarm
Reset button to turn the audible alarm (beep) off.
If this condition persists, the "Duration" indicator will also be illuminated and the display will show how many
hours (up to a period of 99) the internal temperature has
been above 23°F (-5°C). Food quality is considered to be
impaired at temperatures greater than 23°F (-5°C). It is left to the user's discretion to decide how to best manage the contents within the freezer.
SYSTEM ERROR ALARMS
If "E7", "E8", or "E9" are shown on the display every half
second and the control panel beeps every five seconds, call service repair to correct the problem. Press the Alarm
Reset button to turn the audible alarm (beep) off. Until changes are made, freezer will continue to run.
