going to last.
Most power failures that are corrected in an 
  -
hour or two will not affect your refrigerator

the number of door openings while the power 
is off.
But Should the power failure last more than 
  -
24hours, remove all frozen food.

temperature becoming too warm in the frozen 
food compartment) when sited for an extended 
period of time below the cold end of the range of 
temperatures for which the refrigerating appliance 
is designed.
