CARE & MAINTENANCE
CLEANING
Ensure the appliance is unplugged before cleaning.
• To clean the inside of the appliance, use a soft
cloth and a solution of a tablespoon of baking
soda to one quart of water or a mild soap
solution.
• Clean the outside with a soft, damp cloth and
some mild detergent.
• It is important to keep the area where the door
seals against the cabinet clean to ensure a tight
seal. Clean this area with a soapy cloth. Rinse
with a damp cloth and let dry.
Note: Do not use cleaners containing ammonia or
alcohol on the appliance. Ammonia or alcohol can
damage the appearance of the appliance. Never
use any commercial or abrasive cleaners or sharp
objects on any part of the appliance.
DEFROSTING
This appliance should be defrosted approximately
twice a year or when a 6 mm (1/4 inch) layer of
frost has formed on the shelves.
1. Unplug the power cord.
2. Remove all contents and leave the door open.
3. Place a container or towels under the appliance
to collect the defrost water.
4. When all frost has melted, wipe the interior of
the appliance with a towel or sponge to ensure
it is completely dry before resuming operation.
5. Plug the appliance in, turn the thermostat dial
to the desired setting and replace all contents
once the appliance has reached the desired
temperature.
Important: Do not use pointed or sharp objects to
remove frost as this can damage the refrigerant
lines. If these lines are accidentally pierced it will
render the freezer inoperable and will void the
manufacturer's warranty.
POWER FAILURE
Most power failures are corrected within a few
hours and should not affect the temperature of your
appliance if you minimize the number of times the
door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a
longer period of time, take the proper steps to protect
your contents.
Note: Wait 3 to 5 minutes before attempting to restart
the refrigerator if operation has been interrupted.

Leave the appliance operating during vacations of
less than three weeks. If the appliance will not be
used for several months, remove all items and turn

the door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary.
