HELPFUL HINT
Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving the door open will help speed the process. Also,
pouring warm water (not boiling) on the ice/frost will help speed melting. If you must use a scraper-
please use caution - it is very easy to damage the freezer compartment and void your warranty.
? Power Failure
Most power failures are corrected within a few hours and should not affect the temperature of your
freezer if you minimize the number of times the door is opened. If the power is going to be off for a
longer period of time, you need to take the proper steps to protect your food.
? Vacation Time
? Short vacations: Leave the freezer operating during vacations of less than three weeks.
? Long vacations: If the appliance will not be used for several months, remove all food and unplug
the power cord. Clean and dry the interior thoroughly. To prevent odor and mold growth, leave the
door open slightly: blocking it open if necessary.
? Moving Your Freezer
? Remove all the food.
? Securely tape down all loose items inside your freezer.
? Turn the leveling legs up to the base to avoid damage.
? Tape the door shut.
? Be sure the freezer stays in the upright position during transportation.
? Energy Saving Tips
? The freezer should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing appliances
or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
? Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing them in the freezer. Overloading the freezer
forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or spoil.
? Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the freezer. This
cuts down on frost build-up inside the freezer.
? Freezer storage drawers should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the freezer less efficient.
? Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many items
as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.
