PIZZA SHELF (SOME UPRIGHT MODELS) Here is the [}lace to store up to four extra-large boxes of frozen pizza without ever having to dig them out from beneath a pile of other stored goods. To change the location of the pizza shelf: support the bottom center of the shelf with one hand and use your other hand to gently ease each support tab outward until they have all dropped between the edge of the shelf and the liner wall. It may help to slide the supporting shelf slightly to the side opposite that in which you are removing the tabs in order to get a larger gap between the edge of the supporting shelf and the liner wall. Next, locate the pizza shelf beneath the shelf nearest your desired location and snap each tab upwards between the wire or glass shelf and liner until the tab has snapped into place and is resting on top of the supporting shelf. Repeat for each tab until all four are firmly in place and then load with desired items. _Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. Do not touch interior metal surfaces with wet or damp hands. Some upright freezers are frost-free and defrost automatically, but should be cleaned occasionally. BETWEEN DEFROSTINGS To avoid frequent defrosting, occasionally use a plastic scraper to remove frost. Scrape with a pulling motion. Never use a metal instrument to remove frost. DEFROSTING CAUTION Freezer must be unplugged (to avoid electrical hazard) from power source when defrosting unit. CHEST DiViDER (SOME CHEST MODELS) Use these clever dividers to custom-arrange a variety of differentsized storage bins in the bottom of your chest freezer. Use the peeln-stick labels found in your literature packet to help remind you which items are stored where. If you have an item that isn't already covered by one of the pre-printed labels then use one of the blank labels and a permanent marking pen to make your own custom label. Labels can be peeled off when no longer needed and replaced by new and different ones. Examples of Chest Divider Configurations: It is important to defrost and clean the freezer when 1Ato 1/2 inch of frost has accumulated. Frost may tend to accumulate faster on the upper part of the freezer due to warm, moist air entering the freezer when the door is opened. Remove food and leave the door open when defrosting the freezer. To Defrost Upright Models with Defrost Drain: Remove the drain plug on the inside floor of the freezer by pulling it straight out. To access external drain tube on models with a base panel, first remove the two screws from the base panel. Locate the drain tube near the left center under the freezer. Place a shallow pan under the drain tube. Defrost water will drain out. Check the pan occasionally so water does not overflow (see figure 1). A V2inch garden hose adapter can be used to drain the freezer directly into a floor drain. If your model is not equipped with an adapter, one can be purchased at most hardware stores. Replace the drain plug when defrosting and cleaning are completed. If the drain is left open, warm air may enter the freezer. Figure la
