CARE AND MAINTENANCE

Cleaning Your Freezer

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

Turn off the freezer first and then unplug the unit from the wall outlet.

Remove all food content.

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.

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 interior and exterior with a soft cloth.

Vacation Time

Turn off the freezer first and then unplug the unit from the wall outlet.

Remove all the food.

Clean the freezer.

Leave the door open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold, or odors.

Use extreme caution in the case of children. The unit should not be accessible to child’s play.

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

Turn off the freezer first and then unplug the unit from the wall outlet.

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.

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.
