CARE AND MAINTENANCE
CLEANING THE APPLIANCE
Upon installation of your new appliance, it is recommended that it be cleaned thoroughly, and cleaned once a month after
that.
To clean the appliance, first turn the thermostat to 0, turn off the power, unplug from the power socket and remove all
food and shelving.
Wash the inside with a damp warm cloth containing a water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2
tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
Wash the shelving with a mild detergent solution.
Be sure to keep the door gasket (seal) clean to keep the unit running efficiently.
The outside of the appliance should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water.
Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.
It is recommended that the unit be cleaned each time it is defrosted to help keep the unit odour free and running
efficiently.
Do not use oils, abrasive cleaners, petroleum products, acids or alkaline detergents, as they can damage the appliance.
MOVING THE APPLIANCE
Remove all the food.
Securely tape down all loose items inside the appliance.
Tape the doors shut.
Be sure the appliance stays in the upright position during transportation.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts,
and out of the direct sunlight.
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the appliance forces the compressor
to run longer. Foods that coo or freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts down on frost
build‐up inside the freezer and bad odours.
The freezer compartment should not be lined with aluminium foil, wax paper, or paper towels. Liners interfere with cold
air circulation, making the freezer less efficient.
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items as needed at one time,
and close the door as soon as possible.
When adding fresh food, try to add it to the bottom of the freezer, surrounded by food that is already frozen. After adding
fresh food to the freezer, allow 24 hours for it to be fully frozen before adding any more fresh food.
