CARE AND MAINTENANCE

DEFROSTING

Moisture will be introduced to the liner during lid openings and the addition of unfrozen food packages. The moisture will accumulate in the form of frost, mostly on the upper part of the liner walls. Accumulation of frost up to 6 mm (1/4") on the liner is not harmful. However, when it becomes heavier, it should be removed as it slows cooling, resulting in longer running (cycle) times. Under average conditions, defrosting will not be necessary more than once or twice a year. Besides frost, food particles and other foreign substances may accumulate and soil the liner.

For proper defrosting and cleaning, the following method is recommended:

a)Unplug freezer.

b)Quickly remove all frozen food and store in baskets, cartons or other suitable containers. Keep food well

covered with blankets to avoid excessive temperature rise.

c)A kettle/pot of hot water placed in the center of the cabinet will greatly accelerate defrosting.

d)With the help of a wooden spatula or a plastic defrosting scoop, remove the frost and ice off the liner walls as soon as it becomes loose (approximately 15 minutes from start)- do not use any sharp instruments as this may result in damage to the liner wall and/or sealed system, voiding any and/or all warranties which may be in effect. Using a piece of cloth soaked in hot water, the process can be considerably accelerated. As soon as the ice has fallen to the bottom, remove it. Do not let it melt in the freezer as this will increase defrosting and cleaning time.

CLEANING

Now the liner is ready to be cleaned. Sprinkle baking soda on the bottom and walls. This will help in cleaning and odor removal. In order to retain the finish of the freezer cabinet inside and outside, wash only with warm water and mild soap, then rinse and dry. Do not under any circumstances use a gritty soap or a kitchen scouring cleanser, as these tend to scratch the finish.

ELECTRICAL &

MECHANICAL

FAILURE

In the event of a general power failure, it is important to keep the contents of your freezer frozen. For your protection, it is recommended to locate a dealer of dry ice (solidified carbon dioxide) as soon as possible in order to know where to go in case of an emergency. Many ice cream manufacturers use dry ice and this will keep the contents of your freezer at safe temperatures until the emergency has passed.

In case of failure, it is recommended to keep the freezer well covered with blankets.This will help preserve the “cold” inside the freezer. If no help is available within 12 hours, the freezer contents should be transferred into a neighbors freezer (if available).

In the event of mechanical or electrical failure of the freezer, contact a service agent immediately and give complete information of your freezer, the model number and the serial number. These are shown on the serial plate located on the exterior (rear) cabinet wall.
