DO
NOT open appliance door unnecessarily if
unit is off for several hours.
Vacation and Hoving 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 appliance 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.
If a power failure occurs, frozen foods will
stay frozen for at least 24 hours if the appliance
is kept closed. If the power failure continues,
pack seven or eight pounds of dry ice into
the unit every 24 hours. Look in the Yellow
Pages under "Dry Ice'; "Dairies', or "Ice Cream
Manufacturers" for local dry ice suppliers. Always
wear gloves and use caution when handling dry
ice.
If the appliance has stopped operating, see
the "Freezer does not run" section in the Avoid
Service Checklist section of this use and care
guide. If you cannot solve the problem, call an
authorized service personnel immediately.
If the unit remains off for several hours,
follow the directions above for the use of dry ice
during a power failure. If necessary, take the
food to a local locker plant until the appliance is
ready to operate. Look in the Yellow Pages under
"Frozen Food Locker Plants':
