To avoid electric shock always unplug your freezer
before cleaning. Ignoring this warning may result in
death or injury.
Before using cleaning products, always read and
follow manufacturer's instructions and warnings to
avoid personal injury or product damage.
• Turn the temperature control knob to the OFF
position. Unplug the freezer. Remove the food and
storage basket.
• Prepare a cleaning solution of 2 tablespoons of
baking soda mixed with a quart of warm water.
Use a sponge or soft cloth, dampened with the
cleaning solution, to wipe down your freezer.
• The outside of the freezer should be cleaned with
mild detergent and warm water.
• Dry the interior and exterior with a soft cloth.
• Wash the storage basket with a mild detergent
solution and rinse well.
• Do not use harsh or abrasive chemicals, ammonia,
chlorine bleach, concentrated detergents, solvents
or metal scouring pads. Some of the chemicals may
dissolve, damage and/or discolor your freezer.
• It is recommended that the unit be cleaned each
time it is defrosted to help keep the unit odor free
and running efficiently.
Be sure to keep the door gasket (seal) clean and
pliable to keep the unit running efficiently and to
ensure a proper seal.
• Clean the door gaskets every three months
according to the General Cleaning
instructions above.
• Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of
the gaskets will keep the gasket pliable and ensure
a good seal.
