Notes:
DO NOT use sharp or pointed objects, such as knives or forks, to remove frost.
NEVER use hairdryers, electrical heaters, or other electrical appliances to defrost your freezer.
Cleaning your freezer
Your freezer is designed for year-round use with only minimal cleaning and maintenance. We
recommend that you do the
following every time you clean it to keep your freezer running odor-free and efficiently:
Note: To prevent damage to the finish, do not use gasoline, benzine, thinner, or other solvents, and
do not use abrasive cleaners.
1. Unplug your freezer from the power outlet.
2. Remove all food.
3. Wash the storage basket with a mild detergent solution.
4. Wash the inside with a damp, warm cloth soaked in a solution of one quart of lukewarm water to
two tablespoons of
baking soda.
5. Dry the inside and outside with a soft cloth or towel.
6. Make sure that you keep the door gasket (seal) clean so that the door seals tightly. This helps
your freezer run
efficiently.
Storing your freezer

Moving your freezer
1. Unplug your freezer from the power outlet.
2. Remove all food.
3. Securely tape down all loose items inside your freezer.
4. Tape the door shut.

Tips on saving energy
Locate your freezer in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances or
heating ducts and out of
direct sunlight.
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in your freezer. Overloading your
freezer forces the
compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality or spoil.
Wrap foods correctly and wipe containers dry before placing them in your freezer. This cuts down
on frost build-up
inside your freezer.
Do not line the freezer storage basket with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling. Liners
interfere with cold air
circulation and make your freezer less efficient.
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items
as needed at one
