POWER INTERRUPTIONS

1.

In case of a black out, call your electric company

and ask how long It will last.

2.

In case of a 24 hour or less black out, do not open

the refrigerator; this will keep the food fresh.

3.

In case of a longer black out, do one of the following

options:

Pull out all of the frozen food and keep them In an

Ice chest.

Put 2 lbs (907 g) of frozen Ice (make sure you use

gloves) for each sguare foot (28 L) Inside the freezer.

This task will preserve the food fro 2 to 4 days.

In case you do not possess neither Ice chest or dry

Ice, consume your food as soon as possible.

REMEMBER: In a power failure, a full freezer stays cold
longer than a partially filled one. A freezer full of meat
stays cold longer than a freezer full of baked goods. If

you see that food contains Ice crystals. It may be safely

refrozen, although the guallty and flavor may be affected.

If the condition of the food Is poor or If you feel It unsafe,

dispose of It.
