Cleaning and Maintenance
NO DEFROSTING
You never have to defrost your convertible refrigerator/deep freezer. It has been preset at the factory to de-
frost itself automatically. During defrosting, a slight noise may be noticed if the door is opened while the con-
vertible refrigerator/deep freezer is in the automatic defrosting cycle.
CLEANING
Outside/Exterior
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 convertible refrigerator/deep freezer with a soiled dishwashing cloth or wet towel. Do not
use scouring pads, powdered cleaners, bleach, or cleaners containing bleach.
Inside
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. An open box of baking soda in the convertible
refrigerator/deep freezer will absorb stale freezer odors. Change the box every three months.

CHANGING THE LIGHT BULBS
To change the light bulb, make sure to unplug freezer or disconnect unit from power supply before removing
the bulb. Replace the bulb with a 40-watt appliance bulb. Please note that not all bulbs will fit your freezer.
Be sure to replace the bulb with one of the same size and shape. Plug in the freezer or reconnect freezer to
power supply after bulb replacement.
PROLONGED OFF PERIODS
If the convertible refrigerator/deep freezer is not to be used for a long period of time, disconnect convertible
refrigerator/deep freezer from main power supply. Clean and dry the inside as instructed. Leave the converti-
ble refrigerator/deep freezer door open to prevent any mold and mildew growth.
Usage Tips:
Keep the convertible refrigerator/deep freezer’s door closed as much as possible. Try not to open the
door too frequently, especially when weather is hot and humid
Ensure that the unit has sufficient clearance for ventilation
For normal household use, it is recommended to set the thermostat in the middle setting.
Before loading the convertible refrigerator/deep freezer with an item, make sure they are cooled to ambi-
ent temperature.
Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, defrost when frost is 3-5 mm thick.
PREPARING FOR VACATION
To maintain convertible refrigerator/deep freezer in operation during vacations, be sure your house power is
not turned off. For extended vacations or absences, you may prefer to move your frozen foods to a storage
locker temporarily. If your convertible refrigerator/deep freezer is to be left empty, disconnect power cord
plug from power source. To prevent formation of odors, place open box of baking soda in convertible refrig-
erator/deep freezer and leave convertible refrigerator/deep freezer door open.
IN CASE OF EXTENDED POWER FAILURE
Keep convertible refrigerator/deep freezer door closed. This will keep food frozen or refrigerated for up to
24 hours provided warm air is not admitted.
If convertible refrigerator/deep freezer is out of operation for 24 hours or more, add dry ice. Leave ice in
large pieces. Add more ice as required.
If dry ice is not available, move food to frozen locker temporarily—until power is restored
NOTE: Handling of dry ice can cause freezing of the hands—gloves or other protection is recommended.
