Cleaning Your Freezer
Outside. Protect the paint finish. The finish
on the outside of the freezer is a high quality,
baked-on paint finish. With proper care, it
will stay new-looking and rust-free for years.
Apply a coat of appliance polish wax when
the freezer is new and then at least twice a
year. Appliance polish wax also works well to
remove tape residue from freezer surfaces.
Keep the finish clean. Wipe with a clean cloth
lightly dampened with appliance polish wax
or mild liquid dishwashing detergent. Dry and
polish with a clean, soft cloth. Do not wipe the
freezer with a soiled dishwashing cloth or wet
towel. Do not use scouring pads, powdered
cleaners, bleach, or cleaners containing
bleach.
NOTICE:
No Defrosting
You never have to defrost your new No-Frost
freezer. It has been pre-set at the factory to
defrost itself automatically.
To Remove the Freezer Door
1 Remove the plastic hinge cover by either
lifting it off or folding it back (depending on
model).
2 Remove the screws holding the hinge
to the top of the cabinet using a
screwdriver, 5/16" socket driver or wrench
(depending on model).
3 Remove the top hinge from the cabinet and
lift the door up and off the lower hinge pin.
Set the door aside.
To Remove the Freezer Door
The hinge screws are tamperproof. Please
have an authorized service technician
remove the door.
Inside. Clean the inside of your freezer at
least once a year. We recommend that the
freezer be unplugged before cleaning. If this
is not practical, wring excess moisture out of
sponge or cloth when cleaning in the vicinity
of switches, lights or controls.
Use warm water and baking soda solution–
about a tablespoon of baking soda to a
quart of water. Rinse thoroughly with water
and wipe dry. Do not use cleaning powders
or other abrasive cleaners. DO NOT wash
removable parts in a dishwasher.
An open box of baking soda in the freezer will
absorb stale freezer odors. Change the box
every three months.
CAUTION
Some upright freezers are frost-free and
defrost automatically, but should be cleaned
occasionally.
During defrosting, a slight noise may be noticed
if the door is opened while the freezer is in the
automatic defrosting cycle.
Remove the two screws from the bottom
4
hinge.
To replace the doors, reverse the order of the
above instructions.
