IMPORTANT NOTE
The freezer lid may be difficult to open immediately
after closing it. This is normal and is due to the
pressure difference between the cold interior of the
freezer and the warm air that has just entered the
freezer when the lid was opened. The pressure will
equalize within a few minutes.
If the lid is especially difficult to open, wait 5
minutes to allow the pressure to equalize and then
try again.
