After you have used your freeze r for some time, frost will accumulate inside mostly on the upper part of
the foodtiner. This is due to warm, moist air entering the freezer when the door is open and is normal. If
this frost becomes thicker than 1/4", it should be removed as it will become less energy efficient due to
longer running times. Under normal circumstances, defrosting will not be necessary more than once a
year. To defrost your freezer properly, follow these instructions:
1. Unplug freezer°
2. Quickly remove all frozen food and store in baskets, cartons or other suitable containers. Keep
them well covered with blankets to avoid excessive temperature rise°
3. Place pans of hot waterin freezer with lid open to speed melting.
4_ Using a wooden spatula or plastic scraper, remove the frost and ice off the foodliner walls as soon
as it becomes loose (approximately !5 minutes from start),
5 A cloth or towel soaked in hot water will help speed up the process. Remove ice from freezer as
soon as it becomes loose, Allowing it to melt will only make cleaning it more difficult.
& You are now ready to clean your freezer.
CleaningYourFreezer
Oleanlng the Inside
We recommend the following cleaning method: sprinkle baking soda on the sides and bottom of the freezer,
thiswill helpin cleaning and odor removal In order to retainthe finish ofthe freezer cabinet, inside and outside,
wash painted and plastic parts only with warm water and mild soap, then rinse and dry. Do not use, under
any circumstances, a gritty soap or a scouring pad as they will scratch the finish,
During the defrosting operation, some watermay have dripped from the backflange ofthe lid cover. This is
quite normal, Ice has built-up on the lid insulation during normal operation and this ice will melt during
defrosting. You will probably have to fold over and dry the gasket on the hinge side of the lid to complete ths
cleaning process.
Oleanlng the Outside
Wash the cabinet with warm water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
