3-3 Cleaning the Freezer
Outside.
Protect the paint finish. The finish on the outside of the freezer is a high quality
baked-on paint finish. With proper care, it will stay new-looking and rust-free for years. Apply a
coat of appliance polish wax when the freezer is new and then at least twice a year. Appliance
polish wax also works well to remove tape residue from freezer surfaces.
Keep the finish clean.
Wipe with a clean cloth lightly dampened with appliance polish wax
or mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Dry and polish with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wipe the
freezer with a soiled dishwashing cloth or wet towel. Do not use scouring pads, powdered
cleaners, bleach, or cleaners containing bleach.
Inside.
Clean the inside of the freezer at least once a year. We recommend that the freezer
be unplugged before cleaning. If this is not practical, wring excess moisture out of sponge or cloth
when cleaning in the vicinity of switches, lights or controls.
Use warm water and baking soda solution-about a tablespoon of baking soda to a quart of
water. Rinse thoroughly with water and wipe dry. Do not use cleaning powders or other abrasive
cleaners.
An open box of baking soda in the freezer will absorb stale freezer odors. Change the box
ever y three months.
Care should be taken in moving the freezer away from the wall. All types of floor
coverings can be damaged particularly cushioned coverings and those with embossed surfaces.
