CLEANING & CARE
DEFROSTING
Complete defrosting and cleaning should be done at least once a year. In
high humidity areas, a freezer may need more frequent defrosting and
cleaning. Defrost and clean your freezer when frost has built up to about 1/4"
(6mm) thickness.
1. Turn temperature dial to 0 and unplug the power cord from the electrical
outlet.
2. Remove all food (store frozen food in a cooler with ice).
3. Melt frost by propping the door open. Use the drip pan and towels to
collect the water.
4. Wipe water from walls and bottom of freezer with a towel or sponge.
CLEANING
1. Wipe down shelves, drip tray and inside walls of freezer with a soft cloth
and vinegar and water or baking soda and water.
2. Rinse with clean water on a clean cloth. Dry thoroughly.
3. Clean the outside of the cabinet with a soft, damp cloth and mild
detergent.
4.
DO NOT immerse any electrical appliance, cord or plug into water.
5. If planning to use the freezer again immediately after cleaning, plug in
power cord and refer to page 8. Ensure the freezer is cooling properly
before replacing frozen food.
WARNING:
DO NOT use an ice pick, knife or other sharp-pointed
tool to defrost the freezer. Puncturing of refrigerant
tubing may cause fire or explosion. Keep flammable
materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from the
freezer. Use only nonflammable cleaners.
