SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Using the Freezer Controls

If These Features are Different from Yours

These examples are intended to show the variety of features that are available in the product line. If your freezer does not have all the options that are shown, it is not a mistake. The information provided applies to all of the models in the product line.

Temperature Control

The freezer temperature control uses a range of settings from 0 to 7. When set at zero the freezer is OFF—it does not cool or maintain a cool temperature. Setting 1 is the warmest temperature setting and setting 7 is the coldest.

If the freezer is laid on its side during shipping or transport, place the freezer upright and wait 12 hours before plugging it in. This prevents damage to the freezer.

When plugging in the freezer for the first time:

Temperature Monitor Alarm

Temperature monitor alarm is located next to the temperature control knob. Alarm is controlled by a three position switch.

• stops alarm from sounding when the freezer is warm. This setting can be used when defrosting or when first plugging in the freezer.
• ✓ sounds the alarm regardless of temperature to verify alarm is functioning and audible. Alarm system should be tested at least once a month.
• 1 turns the temperature monitor on for normal freezer use. Remember to turn switch to 1 after defrosting.

1. Set freezer temperature setting to 4.
2. Wait 3 to 6 hours.
   3.Add food.
3. After 24 hours, adjust control as desired.

To adjust freezer temperature:

1. Set household thermometer snugly between frozen packages.

2. Thermometer can also be placed in a glass of vegetable oil placed in freezer (vegetable oil will not freeze).

3. Thermometer should be designed for use with freezer.

4. Thermometer should read temperatures ranging from -5^ to 50^ .

5. Wait 5 to 8 hours.

6. Check temperature.

7. Temperature should read between 0^ to 2^ F.

8. If temperature is not in range, adjust control only one number at a time.
9. If temperature needed adjustment, wait an additional 5 to 8 hours and recheck temperature.

Temperature Control Knob

The temperature control knob is located on the outside of the freezer cabinet on the lower right side. To adjust the temperature control, place a flat-bladed screwdriver or coin into slot and turn to the desired temperature.

To conserve energy:

• Do not set controls colder than necessary to maintain a temperature range of 0^ to 2^ .
• Operate in normal room temperatures away from heat sources and direct sunlight.
• Keep freezer full.
• Keep door gaskets clean and pliable by following the cleaning instruction in Care and Cleaning. Replace gaskets if worn.

Temperature Monitor Alarm

Alarm monitors the temperature and signals an audible alarm if freezer rises 10^ above normal temperature for selected setting. Alarm may also sound if:

• Temperature control is turned more than one setting at a time.
• If a large amount of unfrozen food is placed within the freezer at once.

WARNING

To prevent child entrapment keep key out of reach of children and away from freezer.

Lid Lock

The freezer door lock prevents accidental jarring of the lid, which may lead to defrosting and loss of temperature. To use the lid lock:

1. Insert key into lock approximately 14 .
2. Turn key clockwise to lock freezer and counterclockwise to unlock.

Power On Light

This light, located on the outside of freezer lid, glows when the freezer is connected to a power source. The light goes off when power is interrupted or when bulb needs replacing. A flickering light indicates a faulty bulb that needs to be replaced. A qualified service technician must replace the power light bulb.

The key won't stay in...

To help protect children and prevent child entrapment, all of Amana's freezer locks have a 'pop out key' function. This means that when the key is inserted into the lock, it must be pushed in and pressure must be maintained as the lock is turned. Once locked or unlocked, the lock will push the key out, preventing the key from being kept in the lock. The key should be kept in a safe place away from children.

Divider

The freezer divider helps keep frozen items in place and sorted. The divider works like a bookend, helping to stack and sort frozen items and keep them in place. The divider can be placed where it is most convenient for fast and easy access.

If These Features are Different from Yours

These examples are intended to show the variety of features that are available in the product line. If your freezer does not have all the options that are shown, it is not a mistake. The information provided applies to all of the models in the product line.

Baskets

Baskets can be used to organize the freezer by containing small, hard to stack items. Baskets also aid in keeping cooler air in the freezer by allowing quick, easy access to frequently used items. Baskets rest freely on the freezer liner and can be adjusted to the left or right for personal preference.

Can I get another basket?

If you want more accessories for your freezer, they are as convenient as a phone call away. Contact your local Amana dealer, or call:

800) 843-0304 inside USA or

[phone] outside USA or

visit our website at www.amana.com

Defrost Indicator

The defrost indicator is a small black half globe attached to the upper section of the rear wall inside the freezer. When frost is as thick as the indicator and surrounds it, or covers it so that it cannot be seen, it is time to defrost the freezer.

For instructions on how to defrost the freezer, see the User Maintenance section.

Interior Light

The interior light illuminates freezer interior in poor or dimly lit conditions. The light bulb is a 15-watt appliance bulb.
The light is designed and tested to provide illumination while minimizing heat generation if the lid is accidentally left ajar.
To replace the interior light, see the User Maintenance section.

Care and Cleaning

WARNING

To avoid electrical shock, personal injury, or death, disconnect power to freezer before cleaning.

CAUTION

To avoid personal injury or property damage, read and follow all cleaning product manufacturer's directions.

CAUTION

Wear gloves to protect hands from accidental bulb breakage.

Freezing Guidelines

Freezing Basics

Amana provides this information as a guide to aid in food preservation. For specific questions regarding food handling, cooking, or storage contact USDA Meat & Poultry Hotline at [phone].

Freezer burn?

Freezer burn occurs when air reaches the surface of the food. The cold, dry air in the freezer causes the foodstuff to dry out in spots and lose quality. While freezer burn may not taste good, it does not make the food unsafe. Freezer burned portions can be cut away either before or after cooking the food.

Color changes

Color changes can occur in frozen foods. This can cause ground beef to go from a bright, cherry red to a darker, duller brown due to lack of oxygen. Freezing normally doesn't cause color changes in poultry, but it will cause a change in color near the bones resulting in 'bone darkening'. These changes are only visual changes and do not indicate poor quality or unsafe food.

Fast Freezing Facts

• You can freeze almost any food, the main exceptions being eggs still in the shell and cans of foods.
• Frozen food kept at 0^ will always be safe. Only the quality of food suffers over time.
• It is safe to freeze meat or poultry directly in supermarket wrapping. Because this wrapping allows in air freezer burn can occur, so the meat should be used within one to two months.
• Freeze foods as quickly as possible. This prevents large ice crystals from forming which disrupts food quality.
• Never stack packages to be frozen. Lay packages out in a single layer and then stack them after they are frozen.
• If food is thawed within a refrigerator, it is safe to refreeze it without cooking.
• During a power outage, a full freezer will normally keep 2 days, a half full freezer about 1 day. Food should be stacked tightly to provide a nest of cold air around the frozen food.
• As a general guideline, food 2-inches thick should freeze completely in about 2 hours.

Using an Appliance Thermometer

An appliance thermometer is the most accurate method to verify that the freezer is working normally and maintaining correct temperatures. The freezer should maintain a temperature of 0^ to 2^ .

To verify freezer temperature:

1. Use a thermometer with an easy to read degree display. Thermometer should have a long stem for more accurate temperature reading.
2. Place the thermometer in the freezer between packages of foodstuffs. The thermometer can also be placed in a glass of vegetable oil placed in freezer (vegetable oil will not freeze).
3. Close the freezer lid.
4. Allow the thermometer to sit for 5 to 8 hours inside the closed freezer.
5. Check thermometer. Temperature should read between 0^ and 2^ .
6. If temperature is not within the correct range, adjust the temperature by using the temperature control knob. Directions are in the Using the Freezer Controls section.

Freezing Guidelines (cont'd)

Defrosting Foods

There are basic methods to defrost food safely. Food should never be defrosted at room temperature. This allows deadly bacteria to grow while the food is thawing. To defrost safely use:

• Refrigerator: this allows the food to thaw in an environment that controls bacterial growth. Food that is thawed in a refrigerator can be safely refrozen without having to be cooked. Most foods require a day or two to defrost, approximately one day for each 5 lbs. of weight.
• Cold water: place food in a leakproof bag and immerse it in cold water (If bag leaks, food will become contaminated by bacteria). Check water frequently to verify it stays cold. Change water every thirty minutes. After thawing, refrigerate the food until it is ready to use.
• Microwave: cook food immediately after using a microwave to defrost food. Microwave defrosting warms food and can partially cook it, allowing bacteria to grow as it defrosts. Food cannot be refrozen until it is cooked.

Packaging

Proper packaging prevents freezer burn, maintains quality of frozen foods and minimizes odor contamination in the freezer.

For short term storage, it is safe to freeze meat or poultry directly in supermarket wrapping. This meat should be used within 1 to 2 months.

For long term storage, follow these wrapping guidelines:

• Overwrap store wrapped packages with airtight heavy duty foil, plastic wrap or freezer paper.
• Freeze unopened vacuum wrapped packages as they are.
• Make sure lids are sealed tightly when using airtight freezer containers.
• Break down foods into smaller portions for faster freezing.
• Freezer bags can be used. Remove as much air as possible from them before placing in the freezer.
• If a package has accidentally been torn or damaged while in the freezer, the food is still safe to eat. Just unwrap it or repackage it.
• It is not necessary to rinse meat or poultry before freezing.

Cooking Frozen Foods

Foods can be cooked or directly from a frozen state.

The cooking time will multiply to almost one and a half times it would normally take. Remember when cooking poultry or meat to remove paper wrapping, giblet sacks, and any strings that might burn during cooking. Some meats, such as pre-stuffed whole birds, must be cooked from the frozen state to ensure food safety. Remember to read the USDA label on the meat.

Freezing Guidelines (cont'd)

It's happened to all of us, one day the freezer lid gets left open or the power goes out. Either way, you have a freezer full of food and you don't know what to do with it.
