peratures.

Cooling freezer first...
1. Allow freezer to cool 6 to 8 hours before filling with
frozen food
2. Let it cool overnight before adding large amount
of unfrozen food.
NOTE: When freezer is first started the compressor will
run constantly until the cabinet is cooled. It may take
up to 6 to 8 hours or longer, depending on room tem­
perature and the number of times the freezer lid is
opened.
After the cabinet is cooled the compressor will turn
on and off as needed to keep freezer af proper
temperature.
The outside of your freezer may feel warm. This is
normal. The freezer's design and main funcfion is to
remove heat from packages and air space inside the
freezer. This heat is transferred fo the room air, so the
outside walls of fhe freezer may be warm.
The sliding baskets...
Can be moved from side to side or removed when
loading or unloading food below fhem.
To remove:
Liff basket(s] out.
To replace:
Lower basket(s) into place.
The key eject lock...
can help reduce the hazard of child
entrapment.
To lock or unlock the freezer you must hold the
key in the lock while turning. The lock is spring
loaded so the key cannot be left in the lock.
If the key is lost, contact your WHIRLPOOL
dealer for a replacement. Always give the com-
plefe model and serial number of your freezer
when requesting a replacement key.
