Temperature Monitor
(on some models)
An alarm sounds if the temperature in the

on the lower right side of the freezer next to
the temperature control, is controlled by a
3-position switch.

when the freezer is warm (during cool-
down, when defrosting, or during initial
start-up).

of temperature. Test the alarm system
regularly—at least once a month.
11
” is the setting for normal freezer use. Be
sure to return the switch to “
11
” when the
freezer has cooled down after defrosting.
The alarm may sound if the temperature
control is turned to a much colder setting,
as from
2
to
5.
It may also sound if a large
amount of unfrozen food is added at one
time, causing the freezer temperature to rise.
