OPERATING YOUR FREEZER Temperature Control • Your freezer has one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature control is located on the lower right hand corner. • The temperature control of the freezer ranges from MIN (the warmest setting) to MAX (the coldest) and OFF.
HELPFUL HINT: Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving the door open will help speed the process. Also, pouring warm water (not boiling) on the ice/frost will help speed melting. If you must use a scraper, please use caution. It is very easy to damage the freezer compartment and void your warranty.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE Cleaning Your Freezer • Upon installation of your new appliance, it is recommended that it be cleaned thoroughly. • Turn the temperature control to OFF, unplug the freezer, remove the food and storage basket. • Wash the inside with a damp warm cloth containing a water and baking soda solution. The solution should be about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water.
