The portable freezer measures the temperature inside the freezer cabinet and automatically adjusts the appropriate temperature setting for optimal operation.

LOW-SPEED MODE INDICATOR LIGHT

The Low indicator light will illuminate a green light the freezer is running on Low Speed Mode.

In this mode, the portable freezer operates at the lowest fan speed while automatically maintaining the set temperature. The temperature can be set between –8°F to 50°F. The unit switches to lower activity level, fan speed and compressor operation are reduced and the energy consumption is minimized.

TEMPERATURE DISPLAY

The LED display shows the actual temperature inside the portable freezer. When setting the desired temperature, the LED display shows the set temperature level from –8°F to 50°F.

VOLTAGE DISPLAY

If 120-volt connection is active and the AC Cord is plugged in, the LED Display will display “AC” indicator. If 12-volt connection is active and DC Cord is plugged in, the LED Display will display “DC” indicator.

NOTE: This portable freezer can be plugged in with both AC power and the DC power at the same time. If both AC and DC are plugged in at the same time, then the unit will primarily operate on AC. If the AC power source fails, DC will become primary source of power supply.

BATTERY DISPLAY

The battery icon will be displayed only when connected to a DC power source. The battery icon symbolizes the remaining battery source voltage.

LED LIGHT

This freezer comes equipped with energy saving LED light, which helps in lighting up the interior effectively. This LED light comes on automatically when the freezer door is opened. The LED light will shut off once the freezer door is completely closed.

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.

• Rattling 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 unopened for more than 1 minute. 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 “-8°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 frozen food from defrosting.
• Storage recommendations 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.

CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

DEFROSTING AND DRAINING

WARNING: Before proceeding with cleaning and maintenance operations, make sure the power line of the unit is disconnected. Do not touch the power plug when your hands are wet. Never unplug the unit by pulling on the plug.

To avoid damaging the freezing compartment wall, never use a sharp or metallic instrument to scrape off frost or separate the frozen food.

Moisture contained in food and air may form a layer of frost inside the unit after a period of use. We highly recommend that the unit gets defrosted when frost becomes ¼” thick. The defrosting process for this unit is operated manually.

FOR COMPLETE DEFROSTING:

1. Unplug the unit from its power source
2. Remove all food and place it in corrugated boxes, insulated bags, picnic cooler, etc. Use towels and newspaper for insulation as needed
3. With the door open, use pans of hot water to speed the loosening of the frost. Remove large pieces of before they melt
4. Remove the clear drain plug from the inside base cabinet of the freezer. Also, remove the black drain plug from the side of the freezer to drain water.
5. Sponge excess water from the bottom of the freezer.
6. After defrosting, clean the inside and dry with a soft cloth to wipe away the remaining ice and water.

Once the compartment is wiped and dry, replace the drain plugs and plug in the freezer. Return the temperature value to its previous setting and return food to the freezer.

NOTE: Do not use mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process. DO NOT pour hot water directly into compartment or heat with hair dryer while defrosting.

CLEANING

OUTSIDE/EXTERIOR

Wipe with a clean cloth lightly dampened with appliance polish wax or mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Dry and polish with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wipe the freezer with a soiled dishwashing cloth or wet towel. Do not use scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach, or cleaners containing bleach.

INSIDE

Use warm water and baking soda solution–about a tablespoon of baking soda to a quart of water. Rinse thoroughly with water and wipe dry. Do not use cleaning powders or other abrasive cleaners. An open box of baking soda in the freezer will absorb stale freezer odors. Change the box every three months.

PROLONGED OFF PERIODS

If the freezer is not to be used for a long period of time, disconnect freezer from main power supply. Clean and dry the inside as instructed. Leave the freezer door open to prevent any mold and mildew growth.

USAGE TIPS:

• Keep the freezer’s door closed as much as possible. Try not to open the door too frequently, especially when weather is hot and humid
• Ensure that the unit has sufficient clearance for ventilation
• For normal household use, it is recommended to set the thermostat in the middle setting.
• Before loading the freezer with an item, make sure they are cooled to ambient temperature.
• Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, defrost when frost is 3-5 mm thick.

PREPARING FOR VACATION

To maintain freezer in operation during vacations, be sure your house power is not turned off. For extended vacations or absences, you may prefer to move your frozen foods to a storage locker temporarily.

IN CASE OF EXTENDED POWER FAILURE

Keep freezer door/lid closed. Your freezer will keep food frozen for 24 hours provided warm air is not admit- ted. If freezer is out of operation for 24 hours or more, add dry ice. Leave ice in large pieces. Add more ice as required

NOTE: Handling of dry ice can cause freezing of the hands —gloves or other protection is recommended. If dry ice is not available, move food to a frozen food locker temporarily—until power is restored.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

The freezer should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat- producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight. Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the freezer.

Overloading the freezer forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality or spoil. Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the freezer. This cuts down on frost buildup inside the freezer

Freezer shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer less efficient. Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
