Base Grille
To Remove and Replace the Base Grille:

two Phillips-head screws and pulling the grille toward you.
2. 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 removed in Step 1.
Changing the Light Bulbs
NOTE: Not all appliance bulbs will fit your freezer. Be sure to replace
the bulb with one of the same size, shape, and wattage.
1. Unplug freezer or disconnect power.
2. Reach behind the light lens to remove bulb.
3. Replace bulb with a 40-watt maximum appliance bulb.
NOTE: Do not use an LED light bulb as a replacement.

Power Interruptions
If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep the door closed to help
food stay cold and frozen.
f the power will be out for more than 24 hours, do one of the following:
Remove all frozen food and store it in a frozen food locker.
If a food locker is not available, consume or can perishable food at
once.
REMEMBER: A full freezer stays cold longer than a partially filled one.
A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of baked
goods. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be refrozen,
although the quality and flavor may be affected. If the condition of the
food is poor, dispose of it.

When you are moving your freezer to a new home, follow these steps to
prepare it for the move.
1. Remove all frozen food.
2. Unplug the freezer.
3. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them
together so they don't shift and rattle during the move.
4. Clean the freezer thoroughly.

When you get to your new home, refer to the "Installing Your Freezer"
and "Operating Your Freezer" sections for information on installation
