Defrosting (for models GXCF25FBS, GXCF25HBS and PXCR33KSS)

Defrost whenever frost on the wall of the chiller compartment becomes excessive. Never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage the liner. We recommend using a plastic scraper. Do not use any electrical device in defrosting your chiller compartment.

To defrost:

■Remove items from the compartment.

■Turn the Cold (Blue) Power switch (if equipped) to off and unplug the dispenser.

■Put several towels in the bottom of the compartment to collect water.

Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster, keep the door open.

After defrosting:

■Remove the wet towels and wipe up any remaining water.

■Wipe the compartment with a dry cloth.

■Plug in the unit and turn on the Cold (Blue) power switch (if equipped). Return items to the unit.

Preparing for Vacation

For long vacations or absences, set both power switches (on the back of the dispenser, if equipped) to the O (off) position.

1.Unplug the water dispenser.

2.Remove the water bottle.

3.Drain the water tanks (see Draining the Dispenser).

4.Dry the separator thoroughly on both the top and bottom (see Cleaning the Separator).

5.Leave the door of the chiller compartment open.

After returning from vacation, make sure to sanitize the water tanks before using the dispenser (see Cleaning and Sanitizing the Water Tank).
