PROPER FREEZER CARE AND CLEANING
Always clean freezer before reusing.
Warning:
To avoid electric shock always unplug your freezer before cleaning.
Ignoring this warning may result in serious injury.
General:
•
Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda mixed with
warm water. Use sponge or soft cloth, dampened with the cleaning
solution, to wipe down your freezer.
•
Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
•
Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine bleach,
concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. Some of these
chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or discolor your freezer.
Door Gaskets:
•
Clean door gaskets every three months according to general instructions.
Gaskets must be kept clean and pliable to assure a proper seal.
•
Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of gaskets will keep the
gasket pliable and assure a good seal.
POWER INTERRUPTIONS
Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or
other causes. If this happens, refer to these power interruption guidelines:
•
Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a power outage occurs.
When power has been restored, replug power cord to AC outlet and wait
5 minutes for the compressor to restart.
•
The memory function will restore the settings in place before the power
outage.
