Proper Freezer Care and Cleaning Cleaning and Maintenance Warning: To avoid electric shock always unplug your freezer before cleaning. Ignoring this warning may result in death or injury. Caution: Before using cleaning products, always read and follow manufacturer's instructions and warnings to avoid personal injury or product damage. General: • Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda mixed with warm water. Use sponge or soft cloth, dampened with the cleaning solution, to wipe down your freezer. • Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth. • Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine bleach, concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. SOME of these chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or discolor your freezer. Door Gaskets: • Clean door gaskets every three months according to general instructions. Gaskets must be kept clean and pliable to assure a proper seal. • Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of gaskets will keep the gasket pliable and assure a good seal. 9
