CARE AND CLEANING

CAUTION

Damp objects stick to cold metal 

surfaces. Do not touch interior metal 

surfaces with wet or damp hands.

Vacation and Moving Tips

Short Vacations:

 Leave the unit operating 

during vacations of less than 3 weeks.

Long Vacations:

 If the appliance will not 

be used for several months, remove all 

food and unplug the power cord. Clean 

and dry the interior thoroughly. Leave the 

door open slightly, blocking it open if nec-

essary, to prevent odor and mold growth.

Moving:

 Disconnect the power cord plug 

from the wall outlet. Remove foods, then 

defrost, and clean the appliance. Secure 

all loose items such as base panel, bas-

kets, and shelves by taping them securely 

in place to prevent damage. In the moving 

vehicle, secure unit in an upright posi-

tion to prevent movement. Also protect 

outside of the appliance with a blanket, or 

similar item.

Some upright freezers are frost-free and 

defrost automatically, but should be 

cleaned occasionally.

Cleaning the Inside

Wash inside surfaces of the unit with a 

solution of 2 tbsp. (25 g) of baking soda 

in 1 qt. (1 l) warm water. Rinse and dry. 

Wring excess water out of the sponge 

or cloth when cleaning in the area of the 

controls, or any electrical parts.
Wash the removable parts with the 

baking soda solution mentioned above, 

or mild detergent and warm water. Rinse 

and dry. 

Never

 use metallic scouring 

pads, brushes, abrasive cleaners, or 

alkaline solutions on any surface. Do not 

wash removable parts in a dishwasher.

Cleaning the Outside

Wash the cabinet with warm water and 

mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe 

dry with a clean soft cloth. Replace parts 

and food.
Do not use razor blades or other sharp 

instruments, which can scratch the 

appliance surface when removing 

adhesive labels. Any glue left from the 

tape can be removed with a mixture of 

warm water and mild detergent, or touch 

the residue with the sticky side of the 

tape already removed. DO NOT REMOVE 

THE SERIAL PLATE.

WARNING

If leaving door open while on vacation, 

make certain that children cannot get into 

the appliance and become entrapped.

WARNING

Do not open door unnecessarily if unit is 

off for several hours.
