Vacation Time

During long absences, remove all the food; unplug your freezer, clean your freezer, and leave the
door open slightly to avoid possible formation of condensation, mold, or odors.

Moving Your Freezer

•
Remove all the food.
•
Securely tape down all loose items inside your freezer.
•
Turn the leveling screws up to the base to avoid damage.
•
Tape the door shut.
•
Be sure the freezer stays in the upright position during transportation.

Energy Saving Tips

•
The freezer should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing
appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
•
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the freezer. Overloading the freezer
forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
•
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the freezer.
This cuts down on frost build-up inside the freezer.
•
Freezer storage baskets should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer less efficient.
•
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many
items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
