Defrosting
• When? For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the freezer when
the frost is excessive or ¼ to ½ inch thick.
• Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low.
• Turn the temperature control knob to the “0” .
• Remove the frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
• Unplug the freezer.
• Open the freezer door.
• Place a suitable container to collect the defrost water.
• After defrosting, clean and dry the interior.
• Plug in and adjust the temperature control knob as needed.
• Allow the cabinet to cool for 4 hour before returning food to the freezer.
WARNING
Scraping ice from the freezer compartment can damage the unit.
CAUTION:
Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never use a
sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils and will void
the warranty.
HELPFUL HINT:
Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving the door open will help speed the process. Also,
pouring warm water (not boiling) on the ice/frost will help speed melting.
