The indicator lights are located on the front of the freezer above 
the control. The lights assure you that your freezer is operating. 
The indicator lights are LED which do not need to be replaced. 
ON indicator light - shows you that there is power to the freezer. 
COMPRESSOR indicator light - shows you that the compressor is 
running. 
If the ON indicator light is not illuminated, immediately check 
for: 

■

A power interruption.

■

An unplugged power cord.

■

An open circuit breaker or blown fuse. 

NOTE: If there is power to the freezer, and the ON indicator does 
not illuminate, the indicator light may be burned out. Call Service 
to replace the indicator lights.
If the COMPRESSOR indicator is not illuminated: the 
compressor is in its off cycle.
NOTE: The compressor automatically cycles off and on to 
maintain the desired temperature. 

Store small packages in the basket to avoid losing them in the 
bottom of the freezer. The basket can then be moved from side to 
side or it can be removed when loading or unloading the food 
below it.
To remove basket, lift it straight up and out. To replace basket, 
lower basket back into place. 

Accumulation of frost and ice will lessen the performance of the 
freezer. Complete defrosting and cleaning should be done at least 
twice a year or when frost has built up to about 

¹⁄₄" (0.6 cm) 

thickness. In high humidity areas, a freezer may need more 
frequent defrosting and cleaning.

1. Turn the temperature control dial to setting 5, approximately 

6 hours before defrosting, to ensure frozen food is at the 
lowest temperature before removing it from the freezer. 

2. Remove all frozen food. Wrap frozen food in several layers of 

newspaper and cover with a blanket. Food will stay frozen for 
several hours. You may also store frozen food in a cooler, 
additional refrigerator-freezer, or in a cool area.

3. Remove the freezer basket and leave the lid open. 

1. Unplug freezer or disconnect power.
2. Remove the rubber cap from the drain on the freezer floor by 

pulling it straight up. Set the cap aside until defrosting is 
completed. 

3. Place containers of warm water in the freezer, keeping the lid 

open, to speed melting. As the ice melts, water will collect on 
the bottom of the freezer.

4. Use a plastic scraper to remove frost.

NOTE: Do not use electrical appliances such as hair dryers or 
heaters to speed defrosting. Do not use an ice pick, knife, or 
other sharp-pointed tool to defrost freezer. Damage can occur.
