Cleaning the freezer
Your freezer is designed for year-round use with only minimal
cleaning and maintenance. We recommend that you do the fol-
lowing every time you clean it to keep your freezer running
odor-free and efficiently:
To prevent damage to the finish, do not
use gasoline, benzine, thinner, or other solvents, and do not
use abrasive cleaners. Caution To prevent damage to the
finish, do not use gasoline, benzine, thinner, or other sol-
vents, and do not use abrasive cleaners.
Defrosting your freezer
Tip: To avoid standing water when you defrost, place some towels on the floor infront of your freezer.
1. Unplug your freezer.
2. Remove all food from your freezer, and place the food into
containers that will prevent it from melting.
3. To speed the defrosting, you can:
Place a fan blowing on its highest speed right at the
freezer. The ice will melt faster. After the ice melts, use
towels to wipe up excess water, then use the fan to speed
drying.
Place containers with hot water inside the freezer.
Use a plastic or wooden ice shovel (like a spatula) to re-
move thick layers of ice or frost. Do not use a sharp uten-
sil (like a knife) because you may damage your freezer.
Storing your freezer

4. Take off the doors, and leave the shelves in place so that
children may not easily climb inside.

3. Wash the shelves with a mild detergent solution.
4. Wash the inside and outside with a cloth dampened with a
non-corrosive, neutral detergent. If you use a detergent, re-
move the residual detergent with a cloth dampened with
clear water. Do not use excessive detergent or water. Too
much liquid may damage the electrical insulation.
5. Dry the inside and outside with a soft cloth or towel.
6. Make sure that you keep the door gasket (seal) clean so that
the door seals tightly. This helps your freezer run efficiently.

to clean the inside of your freezer.

food back into your freezer.
