Keep your freezer clean to prevent odor build-up. Wipe up any spills immediately and clean at least twice a year. Never use
metallic scouring pads, brushes, abrasive cleaners or strong alkaline solutions on any surface. Do not wash any removable
parts in a dishwasher. Always unplug the electrical power cord from the wall outlet before cleaning.
When moving the freezer, pull straight out. Do not shift the freezer from side to side as this may
tear or gouge the floor covering.
Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. Do not touch interior metal surfaces with wet or
damp hands.
NOTES:
•
Turning the freezer temperature control to "OFF" turns off the compressor, but does not disconnect electrical
power to the light bulb or other electrical components. To turn off power to your freezer, you must unplug
the power cord from the wall outlet.
•
Do not use razor blades or other sharp instruments which can scratch the appliance surface when removing
adhesive labels. Any glue left from tape or labels can be removed with a mixture of warm water and mild
detergent, or, touch the glue residue with the sticky side of tape you have already removed. Do not remove the
serial plate.

CARE AND CLEANING
Care & Cleaning Chart
What To Use
Use 2 tablespoons of baking soda in 1 quart of warm water. Be sure to wring
excess water out of sponge or cloth before cleaning around controls,
light bulb or any electrical part.
Wipe gaskets with a clean soft cloth.
Do not wash any removable items (bins, drawers, etc.) in dishwasher.
Allow glass to warm to room temperature before immersing in warm water.
Do not use commercial household cleaners, ammonia, or alcohol to clean
handles. Use a soft cloth to clean smooth handles. Do Not use a dry cloth to
clean smooth doors.
Clean stainless steel front and handles with soapy water and a dishcloth.
Rinse with clean water and a soft cloth. Wipe stubborn spots with an
ammonia-soaked paper towel, and rinse. Use a non-abrasive stainless steel
cleaner. These cleaners can be purchased at most home improvement or
major department stores. Always follow manufacturer's instructions.
NOTE: Always clean, wipe and dry with the grain to prevent cross-grain
scratching. Wash the rest of the cabinet with warm water and mild liquid
detergent. Rinse well, and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
