Care And Cleaning

Cleaning Your Freezer
■ Outside. Protect the paint finish . The finish on the
outside of the freezer is a high quality, baked-on paint
finish . With proper care, it will stay new-looking and
rust-free for years . Apply a coat of appliance polish
wax when the freezer is new and then at least twice a
year . Appliance polish wax also works well to remove
tape residue from freezer surfaces .
Keep the finish clean. Wipe with a clean cloth
lightly dampened with appliance polish wax or mild
liquid dishwashing detergent . Dry and polish with
a clean, soft cloth . Do not wipe the freezer with a
soiled dishwashing cloth or wet towel . Do not use
scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach, or cleaners
containing bleach .
NOTICE: Care should be taken in moving the freezer
away from the wall . All types of floor coverings can be
damaged, particularly cushioned coverings and those
with embossed surfaces .
In Case of Extended Power Failure
■ Keep freezer lid closed. Your freezer will keep food
frozen for 24 hours provided warm air is not admitted .
■ If freezer is out of operation for 24 hours or more, add
dry ice . Leave ice in large pieces . Add more ice as
required .
Preparing to Move
Disconnect the power cord plug from the wall outlet .
Remove foods, defrost (on Manual Defrost models) and
clean the freezer .
Secure all loose items such as baskets by taping them
securely in place to prevent damage .

■ Inside. Clean the inside of your freezer at least once
a year . We recommend that the freezer be unplugged
before cleaning . If this is not practical, wring excess
moisture out of sponge or cloth when cleaning in the
vicinity of switches, lights or controls .
Use warm water and baking soda solution–about a
tablespoon of baking soda to a quart of water . Rinse
thoroughly with water and wipe dry . Do not use
cleaning powders or other abrasive cleaners . DO NOT
wash removable parts in a dishwasher .
An open box of baking soda in the freezer will absorb
stale freezer odors . Change the box every three
months .
CAUTION
Damp objects stick to cold metal
surfaces . DO NOT touch interior metal surfaces with
wet or damp hands .
CAUTION
Handling of dry ice can cause
freezing of the hands—gloves or other protection is
recommended .
■ If dry ice is not available, move food to a frozen food
locker temporarily—until power is restored .
Be sure freezer stays in upright position during actual
moving and during transportation . The freezer must be
secured during transportation to prevent movement .
Protect outside of freezer with blanket .
