REFRIGERATOR CARE
Door Gaskets
Gaskets must be kept clean and pliable to assure a proper seal.
Clean door gaskets every 3 months with solution of baking soda and
warm water.
Petroleum jelly applied lightly to the hinge-side gasket will keep the
gasket pliable and assure a good seal.
DEFROSTING AND DRAINING
Flammable refrigerant used.
Do not use mechanical devices to defrost freezer.
Do not puncture refrigerant tubing.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion or fire.
For most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost
whenever the frost becomes 1/8" (3.2 mm) thick.
IMPORTANT:
Do not use mechanical devices to defrost freezer.
Do not use boiling water as it may damage the freezer.
1. Remove food and ice cube tray from the freezer, and place the drip tray
under the compartment.
2. Turn the temperature control to (0) O and unplug the unit.
NOTE: Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster keep the
door open and place a bowl of warm water in the refrigerator.
3. When defrosting is complete, empty water from the drip tray, and then
wash the drip tray in warm water and dry it thoroughly.
4. Wipe the interior of the freezer compartment with a soft cloth.
