Care & Maintenance
Cleaning
Ensure the appliance is unplugged before cleaning.
Defrosting
This appliance should be defrosted approximately twice a year or when a 6 mm (1/4 inch) layer of frost has
formed on the shelves.
1. Turn the thermostat dial to the “0” position and unplug the power cord.
2. Remove all contents and leave the door open.
3. Check the appliance frequently while defrosting to ensure that water does not leak and cause damage to
fl ooring.
4. When all frost has melted, wipe the interior of the appliance with a towel or sponge to ensure it is
completely dry before resuming operation.
5. Plug the appliance in, turn the thermostat dial to the desired setting and replace all contents once the
appliance has reached the desired temperature.
Important: Do not use pointed or sharp objects to remove frost as this can damage the refrigerant lines. If
these lines are accidentally pierced it will render the freezer inoperable and will void the manufactuer’s
warranty.
Note: Do not use cleaners containing ammonia or alcohol on the appliance. Ammonia or alcohol can
damage the appearance of the appliance. Never use any commercial or abrasive cleaners or sharp objects
on any part of the appliance.
To clean the inside of the appliance, use a soft cloth and a solution of a tablespoon of baking soda to
one quart of water or a mild soap solution or some mild detergent.
Clean the outside with a soft, damp cloth and some mild detergent.
It is important to keep the area clean where the door seals against the cabinet. Clean this area with a
soapy cloth. Rinse with a damp cloth and let dry.

Power failure
Vacation
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your appliance
if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a longer period of
time, take the proper steps to protect your contents.
Note: Wait 3 to 5 minutes before attempting to restart the refrigerator if operation has been interrupted.
Short vacations: Leave the appliance operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all items and turn off the
appliance. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the door
open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.
