Cleaning Your Frost-Free Freezer
(on some models)
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Risk of Fire or Explosion.
Flammable Refrigerant Used.
Do Not Use Mechanical Devices to Defrost Refrigerator.
Do Not Puncture Refrigerant Tubing.
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 flows 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 or turn knob to "0"
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 and
bins.
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, flammable fluids, 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.
7. Use the appropriate cleaning method for your exterior finish.
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.
