Display shows PO and an alarm sounds; temperature may be higher than normal after a power outage.

Safety: Ensure hands are dry when handling plugs or breakers.

Steps:

• Verify power: Check that the freezer is plugged in securely and the outlet has power. Reset the circuit breaker if tripped.
• Clear the alarm: Press and hold the alarm reset or temperature button combination as indicated on the control panel to clear PO.
• Allow temperature recovery: Keep the door closed as much as possible and allow 12–24 hours for the freezer to return to set temperature.
• Monitor for recurring PO: If PO appears frequently without known outages, have an electrician check the outlet and circuit for intermittent power issues.

Food safety: Evaluate food for thawing; discard items that have warmed excessively.
