•To turn the appliance off, turn the temperature control to ”OFF”.
NOTE:
Turning the temperature control to “OFF” position stops the cooling cycle but does not shut off the power to the unit.
If the unit is unplugged, has lost power, or is turned off, you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the unit will not start.
¾Using Your Ice Cube Tray (Only on models RM1711W / 1711B / 1712PS)
• Recommended thermostat setting for ice making is position “6”.
• Fill the ice cube tray (two thirds of it) with cold water or with any liquid suitable for freezing and place the tray on the bottom of the chiller compartment to freeze properly.
• Dry the tray, otherwise it may stick to the bottom of the chiller.
• The best method to get ice cubes out of the tray is to hold the tray under cold tap water for a second.
• To eject the ice cubes from the tray, place over the ice bucket and twist slightly
¾The Chiller Compartment (Only on Models RM1710W / 1711B / 1712PS)
•This compartment is designed for production of ice cubes and
•The temperature in this compartment does not get cold enough to freeze food safely for long periods of time and works best when the food is already frozen.
•Be design, this chiller compartment is not a true freezer, and may not keep ice cream frozen, or freeze items.
•A colder setting may be used for these items, but other items in the refrigerator may also be affected.
•The chiller door is susceptible to breaking due to excessive ice build up. This part is not covered under your warranty. Be sure to defrost when the ice reaches 1/4 inch thick.
CARE AND MAINTENANCE
¾Defrosting Your Unit (Only on models RM1710W / 1711B / 1712PS)
•Defrost the unit when the frost accumulated on the evaporator is about 5mm (1/5 inch) thick. Set the thermostat dial to “OFF” position.
•Remove frozen or perishable foods from the chiller compartment and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
•During the defrost cycle, the ice melts into the water drip tray.
•To remove the water, either remove the water drip tray and/or place a collection container under the tray. Use a sponge or towel to pick up the melting ice off the unit floor.
•Dry the water collection tray and place back under the chiller compartment. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. After defrosting, return the thermostat dial to the desired position. To defrost quickly remove all foods from the unit and leave the door open. Never use a knife or other metal instrument to scrape ice/frost from the evaporator.
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 system and will void the warranty. We recommend using a plastic scraper.
