FREEZER FEATURES

This manual covers several different models. The freezer you have
purchased may have some or all of the items listed. The locations
of the features may not match those of your model.

Shelves

Store similar foods together and adjust the shelves to fit different
heights. This reduces the time the refrigerator door is open and
saves energy.

To remove and replace a shelf:

1. Remove the shelf by pulling it forward slightly to align the shelf

stops with the openings in the refrigerator compartment liner.
Lift straight up, and pull the shelf out the rest of the way.

2. Replace the shelf by lowering the shelf stops through the

openings in the refrigerator compartment liner. Slide the shelf
in the rest of the way.

Door Bin

To remove and replace the bin:

1. Remove the bin by tipping the front of the bin up and sliding

out.

2. Replace the bin by sliding it in above the desired support

tilting it back into place.

Storage Bin

(on some models)

The slide out bin provides separate storage space for items that
are difficult to store on freezer shelves.
To extend the bin fully, lift up and slide forward. To remove the
basket slide out.

FREEZER CARE

Cleaning Your Frost-Free Freezer

(some models)

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. Unplug freezer or disconnect power.
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. Wash the inside walls with a solution of mild detergent in

warm water or 2 tbs (26 mg) baking soda to 1 qt (0.95 L) 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.

4. Rinse well and wipe dry with a clean soft cloth.
5. 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.

Stainless steel finish: Wash with a clean sponge or soft cloth
and a mild detergent in warm water. Do not use abrasive or
harsh cleaners. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

To keep your stainless steel refrigerator looking like new
and to remove minor scuffs or marks, it is suggested that
you use the manufacturer’s approved Stainless Steel
Cleaner and Polish.

IMPORTANT: This cleaner is for stainless steel parts only!

Do not allow the Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish to
come into contact with any plastic parts such as the trim
pieces, dispenser covers or door gaskets. If unintentional
contact does occur, clean plastic part with a sponge and
mild detergent in warm water. Dry thoroughly with a soft
cloth.

6. Replace all frozen food.
7. Plug in freezer or reconnect power.

8. See “Using the Control.”

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
