Saving energy
You can help save energy.
• Keep the door closed whenever possible.
Avoid opening the door unnecessarily.
• Never place hot food inside the freezer.
• Set the Temperature Control to the proper
setting for your room conditions.
• Position your freezer so it is slightly tilted
backward. This helps the door seal better.
• Place your freezer in a well ventilated area,
away from sunlight, hot surfaces, or humidity.
