CARE AND MAINTENANCE

 

Cleaning Your Freezer 

  Upon installation of your new appliance, it is recommended that it be cleaned thoroughly. 

  Unplug the freezer; remove the food and storage basket. 

  Wash  the  inside  with  a  damp  warm  cloth  soaked  in  lukewarm  water  and  baking  soda  solution. 

The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water. 

  Wash the storage basket with a mild detergent solution. 

  Be sure to keep the door gasket (seal) clean to keep the unit running efficiently. 

  The outside of the freezer should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water. 

  Dry the inner parts of the cabinet and exterior with a soft cloth. 

  It is recommended that the unit be cleaned each time it is defrosted to help keep the unit odor free 

and running efficiently. 

 

Vacation Time 

 

Short vacations: 

Leave the freezer operating during vacations of less than three weeks.

 

 

Long vacations: 

If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug 

the power cord.  Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.  To prevent odor and mold growth, leave 

the door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary or have the door removed. 

 

Moving Your Freezer 

  Unplug the freezer. 
  Remove all the food. 

  Securely tape down all loose items inside your freezer. 

  Tape the doors shut. 

  Be sure the freezer stays in the upright position during transportation. 

 

 

Energy Saving Tips 

  The  freezer  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  freezer.    Overloading  the  freezer 

forces the compressor to run longer.  Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil. 

  Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the freezer.  This 

cuts down on frost build-up inside the freezer. 

  Freezer storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.  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.
