  Setting the Temperature Control 

•  To control the internal temperature, adjust the control dial according to the ambient 

temperature or intended use of the freezer. 

•  The first time you turn the unit on, set the temperature control to Max.  

•  The range of the temperature control is from position OFF  to  Max.  After 24 to 48 hours, 

adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suits your needs.  The setting of 
Normal should be appropriate for most circumstances. 

NOTE:  If the freezer is unplugged, has lost power, or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes 

before restarting the unit.  If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the freezer will not 
start. 

 

  Defrosting Your Freezer 

•  This appliance requires manual defrosting.  Before defrosting the unit, remove the contents 

of the freezer, then set the thermostat to OFF (the compressor will stop working).  Leave the 
door open until ice and frost are completely melted.  To speed up defrosting, you can place a 
container of warm water (about 125°F) into the cabinet.  Soak up the melt water with clean 
toweling or a sponge and be sure the interior is dry before turning the thermostat back to its 
normal setting. 

•  NOTE: It is not advisable to heat the interior of the freezer directly with hot water or a hair 

dryer while defrosting since this can deform the cabinet interior. 

•  Never use a sharp or metallic object to help remove the ice from the walls of the freezer as 

this can damage the evaporator coils and invalidate your warranty. Instead, use the plastic 
scraper included with the freezer.  

  Cleaning Your Freezer 

•  Turn the temperature control to OFF, unplug the freezer and remove the contents, including 

shelves and trays. 

•  Wash the inside surfaces with a warm water and baking soda solution. The solution should 

consist of about 2 tablespoons of baking soda to a quart of water. 

•  Wash the shelves and trays with a mild detergent solution. 

•  The outside of the freezer should be cleaned with mild detergent and warm water. 

•  Wring excess water out of the sponge or cloth before cleaning the area of the controls, or 

any electrical parts. 

•  Wash the outside cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent.  Rinse well and wipe 

dry with a clean soft cloth.
