Do not touch the power plug when your hands are wet. Never unplug the unit by pulling on the plug. To avoid damaging the freezing compartment wall, never use a sharp or metallic instrument to scrape off frost or separate the frozen food. Moisture contained in food and air may form a layer of frost inside the unit after a period of use.
Cleaning and Maintenance IN CASE OF EXTENDED POWER FAILURE Keep freezer door/lid closed. Your freezer will keep food frozen for 24 hours provided warm air is not admitted. If freezer is out of operation for 24 hours or more, add dry ice. Leave ice in large pieces. Add more ice as required NOTE: Handling of dry ice can cause freezing of the hands —gloves or other protection is recommended. If dry ice is not available, move food to a frozen food locker temporarily—until power is restored.
