Defrosting
Ice making is accelerated if the thermostat
knob
‘B’
is turned to the ‘MAX’ setting. It is a good
idea to do this a few hours before you require ice.
Be sure to turn the thermostat back to the normal
setting when the ice is formed. Food in the lower
compartment can be frozen it the thermostat is left
on ‘MAX’.
Shut off the refrigerator by turning knob
‘A’
to ‘OFF
position. Empty the refrigerator, leaving the drip tray
under the finned evaporator. Leave the cabinet and
freezer doors open. Defrosting time can be reduced
by filling the ice tray with hot water and placing it on
the freezer shelf. When all the frost has melted,
empty the drip tray and dry the interior of the
refrigerator with a clean cloth. Replace the drip tray
and ice tray. Replace all the food and set the
thermostat to its normal position.
NOTE:
On the RM2810, the drip tray/cup is on
the rear of the refrigerator. It can be
reached through the outside lower access
door.
CAUTION
DO NOT use a hot air blower as permanent
damage could result from warping the metal
or plastic parts. DO NOT use a knife, ice pick
or other sharp tools to remove frost from the
freezer shelf. They can create a leak in the
ammonia system.
