Care and Maintenance

DEFROSTING
This unit is equipped with a "Frost Free" type cooling system, which means you never have to defrost the freezer compart-
ment. Defrosting is done automatically by means of a defrost heating element and a defrost timer factory-programmed to
operate / cycle. The defrost water is routed into a defrost pan located directly above the compressor, where it then evapo-
rates.
CLEANING
Upon installation of your new appliance, it is recommended that it be cleaned thoroughly.
1. After removing the food and placing it somewhere where it will not thaw, turn the control to "OFF," and unplug the unit.
2. Using a mild detergent and warm water solution, use a clean damp cloth or sponge to wipe the inside of the unit.
3. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Hand wash, rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly. Do not use cleaning waxes,
detergents, bleach etc. on the unit. Never use paper towel, window spray, scouring cleansers or fl ammable cleaners
as they can scratch and damage the unit. Clean with a damp cloth and dry with a soft clean dry cloth.
SOME IMPORTANT RULES FOR THE CORRECT USE OF
THE FREEZER
• Never place hot foods in the freezer.
• Never place spoiled foods in the unit.
• Don't overload the unit.
• Don't open the lid unless necessary.
• Should the freezer be stored without use for long periods, it
is suggested, after careful cleaning, to leave the lid open to
allow the air to circulate inside the unit in order to avoid the
possibility of condensation, mold or odors.
