Your Beverage Center is designed with a manual defrost system. The Beverage Center surfaces will
defrost, when the unit is unplug. Water from the unit is disposed of automatically, by means of being
channeled onto a drip tray located on the compressor. Heat transfer from the compressor causes this
water to evaporate.
Power Interruptions
Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or other causes.
Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a power outage occurs. When power has been
restored, replug power cord to AC outlet.

Vacation and Moving Care
For long vacations or absences, empty contents from Beverage Center, unplug the unit and
clean the Beverage Center and door gaskets according to “General cleaning” section. Prop
doors open, so air can circulate inside. When moving, always move the Beverage Center
vertically. Do not move with the unit lying down. Possible damage to the sealed system
could occur.
