CARE AND CLEANING
Cleaning the Inside
After defrosting, wash inside surfaces of the
appliance with a solution of 2 tablespoons of
baking soda in 1 quart (1.136 litres) warm
water. Rinse and dry. Wring excess water out of
the sponge or cloth when cleaning in the area
of the controls, or any electrical parts.
Wash the removable parts with the baking soda
solution mentioned above, or mild detergent
and warm water. Rinse and dry. Never use
metallic scouring pads, brushes, abrasive
cleaners, or alkaline solutions on any surface.
Do not wash removable parts in a dishwasher.
Cleaning the Outside
Wash the cabinet with warm water and mild
liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with
a clean soft cloth. Replace parts and food.
Vacation and Moving Tips
Short Vacations: Leave the unit 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.
Moving: Disconnect the power cord plug from
the wall outlet. Remove food, defrost, and then
clean the unit. Secure all loose items such as
base panel, baskets, and shelves by taping
them securely in place to prevent damage.
In the moving vehicle, secure the appliance
in an upright position, and secure to prevent
movement. Also protect outside of the unit
with a blanket, or similar item.

POWER FAILURE
WARNING
If leaving appliance door open while on
vacation, make certain that children cannot
get into the unit and become entrapped.
NOTE
Do not open appliance door unnecessarily if
unit is off for several hours.
If a power failure occurs, frozen foods will
stay frozen for at least 24 hours if the unit is
kept closed. If the power failure continues,
pack seven or eight pounds of dry ice into the
appliance every 24 hours. Look in the Yellow
