Cleaning Your Frost-Free Freezer
Frost-free means that you will not have to defrost your freezer.
Frost is removed by air moving and collecting any moisture and
depositing it on the cooling coil. The cooling coil periodically
warms up enough to melt the frost, and it then ows down to the
drain pan (located behind the base grille) where it is evaporated.
Complete cleaning should be done at least once a year.
1. Press and hold TEMP SETTING for 3 seconds to turn off
cooling.
2. Unplug freezer or disconnect power.
3. 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.
4. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves,
bins, etc.
5. Hand wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior
surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and
a mild detergent in warm water.
■ Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners such as window
sprays, scouring cleansers, ammable uids, cleaning
waxes, concentrated detergents, bleaches or cleansers
containing petroleum products on plastic parts, interior
and door liners, or gaskets. Do not use paper towels,
scouring pads, or other harsh cleaning tools. These can
scratch or damage materials.
■ To help remove odors, you can wash interior walls with
a mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs to 1 qt
[26 g to 0.95 L] of water).
6. Replace the removable parts.
CARING FOR YOUR FREEZER
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Use nonflammable cleaner.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
7. Use the appropriate cleaning method for your exterior nish.
Painted metal: Wash exteriors with a clean sponge or soft
cloth and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive
or harsh cleaners or cleaners designed for stainless steel. Dry
thoroughly with a soft cloth.
8. Clean the condenser coils regularly. Coils may need to be
cleaned as often as every other month. This may help save
energy.

removing 2 Phillips-head screws and pulling the grille
toward you.
■ Use a vacuum with an extended attachment to clean the
condenser coils when they are dusty or dirty.
■ Replace the base grille by aligning the ends of the grille
with the leveling assemblies on each side and snapping
the grille into place. Reinstall the screws.
