Operation and Controls
NORMAL SOUNDS
Your new freezer may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Hard surfaces like the floor, walls can make
the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following describes the kinds of sounds that might be
new to you and what may be making them.
Ratting noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water line, items stored on top of the
freezer can also make noises.
The surface temperature of the compressor can reach 158 - 194°F when running.
The high efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound.
The noise emitted by the cooling fan on the condenser is a normal function.
It is normal for the fan in the power supply to run all the time.
As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your freezer.
OPEN-DOOR WARNING SYSTEM
This portable freezer has an Open-door warning system feature which alarms if the freezer door is left uno-
pened for more than 3 minutes. Close the freezer door to turn the alarm off.
STORING FROZEN FOOD
When using the freezer for the first time or after defrosting, turn the temperature setting to set “-6°F ” for at
least two hours before introducing the food to be stored.
All frozen food products purchased should be placed in the freezer as soon as possible to avoid the fro-
zen food from defrosting.
Storage recommendation printed on the packaging of frozen food by the manufacturers should be al-
ways be followed.
FREEZING FRESH FOOD
Ensure that your freezing operations are carried out under the most hygienic conditions as freezing alone
does not sterilize the food.
It is advisable to freeze the food by packing it into separate meal portions and not in bulk form. Never put
hot or warm food stuffs into the freezer.
Prior to storing the frozen food, pack it in plastic bags, aluminum sheets or freezing containers and place
into the freezer.
Fresh foods should not be stored together with frozen foods.
When the temperature is set below 32°F, do not keep glass-bottled drinks such as beer and lemonade or
soda cans, as the glass and cans might shatter.
Do not use this portable freezer as a refrigerator when the ambient temperature is 41°F as food can be-
come frozen.
Note: For best performance, leave enough space inside the freezer compartment for air to circulate
around the packages.
