INSIDE WALLS (Allow freezer to warm up so the
cloth will not stick)
To help remove odors, you can wash the inside of the
refrigerator with a mixture of baking soda and warm
water. Mix 2 tablespoons of baking soda to 1 quart of
water (26 g soda to 1 liter water.) Be sure the baking
soda is completely dissolved so it does not scratch the
surfaces of the refrigerator.
CAUTION.
While cleaning the inside, do not spray
water.
DOOR LINERS AND GASKETS
Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent
in warm water. Do not use cleaning waxes, concentrated
detergents, bleaches, or cleaners containing petroleum
on plastic refrigerator parts.
PLASTIC PARTS (Covers and Panels)

in warm water. Do not use window sprays, abrasive
cleansers, or flammable fluids. These can scratch or
damage the material.

refrigerator; this will keep the food fresh.

options:

• Pull out all of the frozen food and keep them in an ice
chest.
• Put 2 lbs (907 g) of frozen ice (make sure you use
gloves) for each square foot (28 L) inside the freezer.
This task will preserve the food fro 2 to 4 days.
• In case you do not possess neither ice chest or dry ice,
consume your food as soon as possible.
REMEMBER: In a power failure, a full freezer stays cold
longer than a partially filled one. A freezer full of meat
stays cold longer than a freezer full of baked goods. If
you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be safely
refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be affected.
If the condition of the food is poor or if you feel it unsafe,
dispose of it.
