To avoid electric shock always unplug your freezer before 
cleaning. Ignoring this warning may result in death or injury.

 Before using cleaning products, always read and follow  
manufacturer’s instructions and warnings to avoid personal 
injury or product damage.
 General:
 
•   Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of 
baking soda mixed with warm water. Use sponge or soft 
cloth, dampened with the cleaning solution, to wipe down 
your   freezer.
 
   
•  Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
 
   
•         Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine 
bleach,concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring 
pads. SOME of these chemicals may 
dissolve, damage and/or discolor your  freezer.
 
 
•  Clean door gaskets every three months according to  
general instructions. Gaskets must be kept clean and pliable 
to assure a proper seal.
 
  
•   Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of gaskets 
will keep the gasket  pliable and assure a good seal. 
Proper Freezer Care and Cleaning
Door Gaskets:
•  Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms 
or other causes. Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a 
power outage occurs. When power has been restored, replug power 
cord to AC outlet. If outage is for a prolonged period, inspect and 
discard spoiled or thawed food in freezer. Clean freezer before  
reusing.
•   For long vacations or absences, empty food from freezer, move the  
temperature DIAL to the OFF position and clean the door gaskets 
according to “General cleaning” section. Prop doors open, so air can 
circulate inside. When moving always move the freezer  
vertically. Do not move with the unit lying down. Possible damage to 
the sealed system could occur.
