Check the food: anything still hard or with ice crystals can stay frozen. If it comes back, it needs a visit. ### What does the Power Outage light on my JennAir freezer column mean? The power was off and the freezer warmed up. Check the food and keep the door shut while it recovers. ### How do I keep food frozen in a JennAir column during a long outage? JennAir suggests 2 pounds of dry ice per cubic foot, which keeps food frozen for 2 to 4 days, or moving food to a frozen food locker. ### My JennAir column is dark after an outage. What should I check? The breaker, then the power switch behind the toe kick at the bottom of the column. --- **[Read on the site: JennAir column freezer Power Outage indicator: the power was off and it warmed up](https://freezerrepair.center/error-codes/jennair-power-outage/)** **[Book a visit with FreezerRepair.center](https://freezerrepair.center/schedule/)**
