POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your
appliance if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a
longer period of time, take the proper steps to protect your contents. In the event of a power failure,
wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting.
