“Express Freeze”

Do not place glass containers, bottles or cans
(especially those containing carbonated drinks)
in the freezer compartment, shelves or ice bin
that will be exposed to temperatures below
freezing.

In the event of a blackout, call the electricity
company and ask how long it is going to last.

- You should avoid door openings while the
power is off.

- When the power supply gets back to normal,
check the condition of the food.

If you are leaving the appliance turned off for an
extended period of time, remove all food and unplug
the power cord. Clean the interior, and leave the
doors slightly ajar to prevent mold from growing
in the appliance.

If there are chill compartments in the appliance,
do not store vegetables and fruits with higher
moisture content in the chill compartments as they
may freeze due to the lower temperature.

The automatic defrosting system in the appliance
ensures that the compartment remains free of ice
buildup under normal operating conditions.
