Indicator Lights
The indicator lights are located on the front of the freezer above
the control. The lights assure you that your freezer is operating.
The indicator lights are LED which do not need to be replaced.
ON indicator light - shows you that there is power to the freezer.
COMPRESSOR indicator light - shows you that the compressor is
running.
If the ON indicator light is not illuminated, immediately check
for:
■ A power interruption.
■ An unplugged power cord.
■ An open circuit breaker or blown fuse.
NOTE: If there is power to the freezer, and the ON indicator does
not illuminate, the indicator light may be burned out. Call Service
to replace the indicator lights.
If the COMPRESSOR indicator is not illuminated: the
compressor is in its off cycle.
NOTE: The compressor automatically cycles off and on to
maintain the desired temperature.
Sliding Basket
Store small packages in the basket to avoid losing them in the
bottom of the freezer. The basket can then be moved from side to
side or it can be removed when loading or unloading the food
below it.
To remove basket, lift it straight up and out. To replace basket,
lower basket back into place.
FREEZER CARE
Defrosting and Cleaning Your Freezer
Accumulation of frost and ice will lessen the performance of the
freezer. Complete defrosting and cleaning should be done at least
twice a year or when frost has built up to about ¹⁄₄" (0.6 cm)
thickness. In high humidity areas, a freezer may need more
frequent defrosting and cleaning.
Before Defrosting
1. Turn the temperature control dial to setting 5, approximately
6 hours before defrosting, to ensure frozen food is at the
lowest temperature before removing it from the freezer.
2. 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.
3. Remove the freezer basket and leave the lid open.
Defrosting
1. Unplug freezer or disconnect power.
2. Remove the rubber cap from the drain on the freezer floor by
pulling it straight up. Set the cap aside until defrosting is
completed.
3. Place containers of warm water in the freezer, keeping the lid
open, to speed melting. As the ice melts, water will collect on
the bottom of the freezer.
4. Use a plastic scraper to remove frost.
NOTE: Do not use electrical appliances such as hair dryers or
heaters to speed defrosting. Do not use an ice pick, knife, or
other sharp-pointed tool to defrost freezer. Damage can occur.
