OPERATION

To avoid vibration, the cabinet must be set level. This is accomplished by adjusting the (2) front leveling legs located under

the freezer cabinet.

To start the freezer, turn the temperature control to the position corresponding to the

desired cooling.

0 = No Cooling

3, 4 = Medium Cooling

The freezer temperature will vary depending on the quantity of the food stored and on the

frequency with which the door is opened.

DEFROSTING INSTRUCTIONS

Defrost and clean your freezer when frost has built up to about 1/4"(6mm) thickness. Complete defrosting and cleaning

should be done at least once a year. In high humidity areas, a freezer may need more frequent defrosting and cleaning.

IMPORTANT: Do not use an ice pick, knife or other sharp-pointed tool to defrost freezer. Damage can occur.

1) Turn temperature control to '0' (off) and unplug the power cord.

2) Remove all frozen food. Wrap frozen food in several layers of newspaper and cover with a blanket. Food will say frozen

for several hours OR store frozen food in a cooler, additional refrigerator-freezer or in a cool area.

3) Place pans of hot water in the freezer with the door open to speed melting. Directing air from an electric fan into the

freezer will also help. Do not place fan in freezer.

4) Remove frost.

5) Wipe water from walls and bottom of freezer with a towel or sponge.

6) Wash inside walls.

7) Rinse and dry thoroughly.

8) Replace all frozen food.

9) Plug in power cord and refer to "Operation."

CLEANING

To clean the inside, use a soft cloth and a mixture of one tablespoon of baking soda to one quart of water. Other clean-

ing solution options are a mild soap sud solution, or mild detergent. Wash glass shelves in a mild detergent solution, then

wipe dry with a soft, clean cloth. Clean the outside with a soft damp cloth and some mild detergent or appliance cleaner.

VACATION TIME

For short vacation periods, leave the control knob at its normal setting. During longer absences:

a) Remove all foods.

b) Disconnect power cord from electrical outlet.

c) Clean the freezer thoroughly, including drip tray (defrost pan), located on the bottom of the unit.

d) Leave door open to avoid possible formations of condensate, mold or odors.

POWER FAILURE

Most power failures are corrected within an hour or two and will not affect your freezer temperatures. However, you should

minimize the number of door openings while the power is off. During power failures of longer duration, take steps to pro-

tect your food.
