Cleaning the Outside
Wash the cabinet with warm water and mild
liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with
a clean soft cloth. Replace parts and food.
Do not use razor blades or other sharp
instruments, which can scratch the appliance
surface when removing adhesive labels. Any
glue left from the tape can be removed with
a mixture of warm water and mild detergent,
or touch the residue with the sticky side of the
tape already removed. DO NOT REMOVE THE
SERIAL PLATE.
WARNING
If leaving door open while on vacation, make
certain that children cannot get into the
appliance and become entrapped.
WARNING
Do not open door unnecessarily if unit is off
for several hours.
Vacation and Moving Tips
Short Vacations: Leave the appliance
operating during vacations of less than 3
weeks.
Long Vacations: If the unit will not be
used for several months, remove all food and
unplug the power cord. Clean and dry the
interior thoroughly. Leave the freezer door
open slightly, blocking it open if necessary, to
prevent odor and mold growth.
Moving: Disconnect the power cord plug
from the wall outlet. Remove food, defrost,
and then clean the appliance. Secure all loose
items such as base panel, baskets, and shelves
by taping them securely in place to prevent
damage. In the moving vehicle, secure the unit
in an upright position, and secure to prevent
movement. Also protect outside of unit with a
blanket, or similar item.
If a power failure occurs, frozen foods
will stay frozen for over 2 days (upright/
convertible) or 3 days (chest) if the appliance
is kept closed*. If the power failure continues,
pack seven or eight pounds of dry ice into the
unit every 24 hours. Look in the Yellow Pages
under "Dry Ice," "Dairies," or "Ice Cream
Manufacturers" for local dry ice suppliers.
Always wear gloves and use caution when
handling dry ice.
If the appliance has stopped operating,
see "Appliance does not run" in the BEFORE
YOU CALL section of this manual. If you
cannot solve the problem, call an authorized
servicer immediately.
If the appliance remains off for several
hours, follow the directions above for the use
of dry ice during a power failure. If necessary,
take the food to a local locker plant until the
unit is ready to operate. Look in the Yellow
Pages under "Frozen Food Locker Plants."
