We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

DANGER

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately follow instructions.

WARNING

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects or other reproductive harm.

Proper Disposal of Your Refrigerator or Freezer

WARNING

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors or lid from your old freezer or refrigerator.

Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.

IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the past. Junked or abandoned freezers or refrigerators are still dangerous — even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old refrigerator or freezer, please follow these instructions to help prevent accidents.

Before You Throw Away Your Old Freezer or Refrigerator:

■Take off the doors or lid.
■Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb inside.

Illustration of an open refrigerator with shelves and a door (no text or symbols)

Important information to know about disposal of refrigerants:

Dispose of freezer in accordance with Federal and Local regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed, EPA certified refrigerant technician in accordance with established procedures.

Excessive Weight Hazard

Use two or more people to move and install freezer.

Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.

Remove Packaging Materials

■Remove tape and glue residue from surfaces before turning on the freezer. Rub a small amount of liquid dish soap over the adhesive with your fingers. Wipe with warm water and dry.
■Do not use sharp instruments, rubbing alcohol, flammable fluids, or abrasive cleaners to remove tape or glue. These products can damage the surface of your freezer. For more information, see the "Safety" section.

When Moving Your Freezer:

Your freezer is heavy. When moving the freezer for cleaning or service, be sure to cover the floor with cardboard or hardboard to avoid floor damage. Always pull the freezer straight out when moving it. Do not wiggle or “walk” the freezer when trying to move it, as floor damage could occur.

Clean Before Using

After you remove all of the packaging materials, clean the inside of your freezer before using it. See the cleaning instructions in the "Caring For Your Freezer" section.

Important information to know about glass shelves and covers:

Do not clean glass shelves or covers with warm water when they are cold. Shelves and covers may break if exposed to sudden temperature changes or impact, such as bumping. Tempered glass is designed to shatter into many small, pebble-size pieces. This is normal. Glass shelves and covers are heavy. Use both hands when removing them to avoid dropping.

Location Requirements

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from freezer.

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

Ventilation and Clearance

• Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from freezer.
  ■ Do not cover the freezer with items such as blankets, sheets, tablecloths, etc. This reduces air circulation.
• Allow at least 3" (7.5 cm) of air space at the top and on both sides of the freezer and 1" (2.5 cm) between the back of the freezer and the wall. If the freezer is to be next to a fixed wall, leave extra space on the hinge side so the door can open wider.

Temperature

Your freezer operates most efficiently when located in an area where the temperature will not fall below 40^ F ( 5^ C). Place your freezer in a location where the temperature will not fall below this recommended temperature.

Upon Moving to Final Location

NOTE: Allow for a 3" (7.5 cm) clearance at the top and sides and a ^1/_4 " (6.4 mm) clearance between the appliances.

3" (7.5 cm) 3" (7.5 cm)

Freezer Leveling and Door Closing

Style 1—Without Grille

1. Locate the two front leveling legs taped among the packing materials.
2. Screw these legs into the front holes on the bottom of the freezer. The back of the freezer rests on two fixed supports.
3. Adjust the front legs enough to lift the cabinet up off the floor.
4. Place a leveling tool on top of the freezer first side to side, then front to back. Turn leg counterclockwise to raise a corner. Turn leg clockwise to lower a corner.

1. Repeat Step 4 until freezer is level.
2. After freezer is fully loaded with food, recheck with level as in Step 4.

Style 2—With Grille

Your freezer has two front adjustable legs — one on each side. The back of the freezer rests on two fixed rollers. The base grille covers the adjustable brake feet and roller assemblies located at the bottom of the freezer below the freezer door. Before making any adjustments, remove the base grille and move the freezer to its final location.

Tools Needed: 1/4" hex driver, Phillips screwdriver

1. Remove the base grille screws. Grasp the grille firmly and pull it toward you. Open the freezer door to access the brake feet.

NOTE: To allow the freezer to roll more easily, raise the brake feet by turning them counterclockwise. The front rollers will be touching the floor.

Diagram showing hands operating a mechanical device with screwdriver and directional arrows (no text or symbols)

1. Move the freezer to its final location.

2. Lower the brake feet, by turning them clockwise, until the rollers are off the floor and both brake feet are snug against the floor. This keeps the freezer from rolling forward when opening the freezer door.

IMPORTANT: If you need to make further adjustments involving the brake feet, you must turn both brake feet the same amount to keep the freezer level.

1. Make sure the door closes easily. If you are satisfied with the door opening and closing, skip the next section. If, however, the door does not close easily or the door pops open, adjust the tilt.

2. Make sure the freezer is steady. If the freezer seems unsteady or rolls forward when the door is pulled open, adjust the brake feet.

To Steady the Freezer:

■Open the freezer door. Using a 14 " hex driver, turn both brake feet clockwise the same amount until the brake feet are snug against the floor. Check again. If not satisfied, continue to adjust the brake feet by half turns of the screw until the freezer does not roll forward when the door is opened.

1. Replace the base grille by aligning the ends of the grille with the leveling assemblies on each side and snapping the grille into place. Reinstall the Phillips screws.

To Adjust the Cabinet Tilt:

NOTE: Having someone push against the top of the freezer takes some weight off the brake feet. This makes it easier to turn them.

■Open the freezer door. Use a 14 " hex driver to turn both brake feet clockwise the same amount. This will raise the front of the freezer. It may take several turns to allow the door to close more easily.

In order to ensure proper temperature, you need to permit proper airflow in the freezer. As shown in the illustration, cool air enters from the freezer wall and moves down. The air then recirculates through the vent near the bottom.

Diagram of a cabinet with labeled shelves and internal flow arrows indicating process or movement

Do not block any of these vents with food packages. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be restricted and temperature and moisture problems may occur.

IMPORTANT: To avoid odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

Using the Control

The temperature control is located at the top front of the freezer compartment.

Temperature Control

For your convenience, the temperature control is preset at the factory. When you first install your freezer, check that the control is still set to the recommended setting as shown.

temp setting cooling on/off hold 3 sec. MAYTAG cold colder coldest recommended Fast Freeze is engaged when all LEDs are on

Recommended setting "Colder"

IMPORTANT:

■The recommended setting is designed to maintain the temperature at or near 0^ F ( -17.8^ C) under normal operating conditions.

■ Allow the freezer to cool 6 to 8 hours before filling with frozen food.

■When the freezer is first started, the compressor will run constantly until the freezer is cooled. It may take up to 6 or 8 hours (or longer), depending on room temperature and number of times the freezer door is opened. After the freezer is cooled, the compressor will turn on and off as needed to keep the freezer at the proper temperature.
■The outside of your freezer may feel warm. This is normal. The freezer's design and main function is to remove heat from packages and air space inside the freezer. The heat is transferred to the room air, making the outside of the freezer feel warm.

Adjusting Control

If you need to adjust the temperature in the freezer compartment, press TEMP SETTING to display the desired temperature setting from Cold to Coldest.

NOTE: Except when starting the freezer, do not adjust the control more than one setting at a time. Wait 24 hours between adjustments for the temperature to stabilize.

Cooling On/Off

Your freezer will not cool when cooling is turned off.

To turn cooling off, press and hold TEMP SETTING for 3 seconds. In the off condition, none of the lights on the control panel will be illuminated. The main freezer light bulb will still operate.

To turn cooling on, press and hold TEMP SETTING for 3 seconds. When cooling is on, the control panel lights will be illuminated.

Fast Freeze (on some models)

Use this feature before adding large amounts of unfrozen food. For the best food quality, do not exceed 3 lbs (1,361 g) per cu. ft (28.32 L) of freezer space.

To activate Fast Freeze, press TEMP SETTING until all the indicator light positions are illuminated simultaneously.

The freezer will remain in the Fast Freeze setting for 24 hours after the extra-low temperature is reached. Once the time has expired, the freezer will return to the previous temperature setting. Fast Freeze may be manually turned off by pressing TEMP SETTING to select the desired temperature setting from Cold to Coldest.

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.

Freezer Shelves

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

To Remove and Replace a Shelf:

1. Remove the shelf by lifting straight up and pulling the shelf out.

Diagram showing a hand holding a tool interacting with a mechanical component, no text or symbols present

1. Replace the shelf by lowering the shelf onto the supports on the side wall.

Storage Gate (on some models)

To Remove the Storage Gate:

1. Lift up the top of the gate and out of the supports.
2. Return the gate to original position. Lower the gate into the supports.

CARING FOR YOUR FREEZER

WARNING

Explosion Hazard

Use nonflammable cleaner.

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

Cleaning Your Freezer

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. Press and hold TEMP SETTING for 3 seconds to turn off cooling.
2. Unplug freezer or disconnect power.
3. 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.
4. Remove all removable parts from inside, such as shelves, bins, etc.
5. Hand-wash, rinse, and dry removable parts and interior surfaces thoroughly. Use a clean sponge or soft cloth and a mild detergent in 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.

■ To help remove odors, you can wash interior walls with a mixture of warm water and baking soda (2 tbs to 1 qt [26 g to 0.95 L] of water).

1. Replace the removable parts.

2. 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.

3. Remove the base grille by opening the freezer door and removing the two Phillips-head screws. Pull the grille toward you to remove.

Diagram showing hands operating a mechanical device with screwdriver and directional arrow (no text or symbols)

1. Replace the base grille by aligning the ends of the grille with the leveling assemblies on each side and snapping the grille into place. Reinstall the screws.
2. Replace all frozen food.
3. Plug in freezer or reconnect power.
4. Set temperature control to desired setting. See "Using the Control."

Changing the Light Bulb

NOTE: Not all appliance bulbs will fit your freezer. Be sure to replace the bulb with an appliance bulb of the same size, shape, and wattage.

1. Unplug freezer or disconnect power.
2. Remove the light shield by squeezing the lens from the sides, pushing back and pulling down.

Technical line drawing of a mechanical component with an inset close-up view (no text or symbols)

1. Replace bulb with a 40-watt maximum appliance bulb or an LED bulb rated for wet/damp locations.

NOTE: Some LED replacement light bulbs are not recommended for wet/damp environments. Refrigerator fresh food and freezer compartments are considered wet/damp environments. Read and follow all instructions on the LED packaging when replacing the factory-installed LED bulb. A replacement LED bulb can be purchased from an authorized dealer.

1. Replace the light shield.
2. Plug in freezer or reconnect power.

Power Interruptions

If the power will be out for 24 hours or less, keep the door closed to help food stay cold and frozen.

If the power will be out for more than 24 hours, do one of the following:

■ Remove all frozen food and store it in a frozen food locker.
■ If a food locker is not available, consume or can perishable food at once.

REMEMBER: A full freezer stays cold longer than a partially filled one. A freezer full of meat stays cold longer than a freezer full of baked goods. If you see that food contains ice crystals, it may be refrozen, although the quality and flavor may be affected. If the condition of the food is poor, dispose of it.

Moving Care

When you are moving your freezer to a new home, follow these steps to prepare it for the move.

1. Remove all frozen food.
2. Unplug the freezer.
3. Take out all removable parts, wrap them well, and tape them together so they don't shift and rattle during the move.
4. Clean the freezer thoroughly.
5. Tape the freezer shut and tape the electrical cord to the cabinet.

When you get to your new home, refer to the "Installing Your Freezer" and "Operating Your Freezer" sections for information on installation and setting the controls.
