Cleaning and Maintenance 

NO DEFROSTING 

You never have to defrost your convertible refrigerator/deep freezer. It has been preset at the factory to de-

frost itself automatically. During defrosting, a slight noise may be noticed if the door is opened while the con-

vertible refrigerator/deep freezer is in the automatic defrosting cycle. 

 

 

CLEANING 
Outside/Exterior

 

 

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 convertible refrigerator/deep freezer with a soiled dishwashing cloth or wet towel. Do not 

use scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach, or cleaners containing bleach. 

Inside

 

 

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 convertible 

refrigerator/deep freezer will absorb stale freezer odors. Change the box every three months. 

 

An open box of baking soda in the convertible refrigerator/deep freezer will absorb stale odors. Change 

the box every three months. 
 

CHANGING THE LIGHT BULBS

 

To change the light bulb, make sure to unplug freezer or disconnect unit from power supply before removing 

the bulb. Replace the bulb with a 40-watt appliance bulb. Please note that not all bulbs will fit your freezer. 

Be sure to replace the bulb with one of the same size and shape. Plug in the freezer or reconnect freezer to 

power supply after bulb replacement.  

 

PROLONGED OFF PERIODS 

If the convertible refrigerator/deep freezer is not to be used for a long period of time, disconnect convertible 

refrigerator/deep freezer from main power supply. Clean and dry the inside as instructed. Leave the converti-

ble refrigerator/deep freezer door open to prevent any mold and mildew growth. 
Usage Tips: 

 

Keep the convertible refrigerator/deep freezer’s door closed as much as possible. Try not to open the 

door too frequently, especially when weather is hot and humid 

 

Ensure that the unit has sufficient clearance for ventilation 

 

For normal household use, it is recommended to set the thermostat in the middle setting. 

 

Before loading the convertible refrigerator/deep freezer with an item, make sure they are cooled to ambi-

ent temperature. 

 

Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, defrost when frost is 3-5 mm thick. 
 

PREPARING FOR VACATION 

To maintain convertible refrigerator/deep freezer in operation during vacations, be sure your house power is 

not turned off. For extended vacations or absences, you may prefer to move your frozen foods to a storage 

locker temporarily. If your convertible refrigerator/deep freezer is to be left empty, disconnect power cord 

plug from power source. To prevent formation of odors, place open box of baking soda in convertible refrig-

erator/deep freezer and leave convertible refrigerator/deep freezer door open.

 

 

IN CASE OF EXTENDED POWER FAILURE 

 

Keep convertible refrigerator/deep freezer door closed. This will keep food frozen or refrigerated for up to 

24 hours provided warm air is not admitted. 

 

If convertible refrigerator/deep freezer is out of operation for 24 hours or more, add dry ice. Leave ice in 

large pieces. Add more ice as required.  

 

If dry ice is not available, move food to frozen locker temporarily—until power is restored  

NOTE: Handling of dry ice can cause freezing of the hands—gloves or other protection is recommended.
