Defrosting

1.Shut off the refrigerator by pressing the main power ON/OFF button (OFF position).

2.Empty the refrigerator.

.Leave the cabinet and freezer doors open and place the drip tray under the finned evaporator. Defrosting time can be reduced by filling the ice trays with hot water and placing them in the freezer compartment.

CAUTION

Do not use:

A knife or an ice pick, or other sharp tools to remove frost from the freezer shelves. It can create a leak in the ammonia system.

A hot air blower. Permanent damage could result from warping the metal or plastic parts.

4.When all the frost has melted, dry the interior with a clean cloth.

5.Turn the refrigerator back on.

Cleaning

Always keep the refrigerator clean. Cleaning the refrigerator is usually done after it is defrosted or put into storage. Use luke- warm weak soda solution to clean the interior liner of the re- frigerator. Use warm water only to clean the finned evaporator, gasket, ice tray and shelves. Do not spray liquids near electrical outlets, connections or the refrigerator components.

CAUTION

Never use strong chemicals or abrasives to clean these parts, as the protective surfaces will be damaged.

To keep the refrigerator operating efficiently and safely, peri- odic inspection and cleaning of several components once or twice a year is recommended:

Check the lower vent, upper vent and area between these openings for any obstructions such as bird/insect nests, spider webs, etc.

Make sure the refrigerator area is free from combustible material, gasoline and other flammable vapors or liquids.

Clean the coils on the back of the refrigerator. Use a soft bristled brush to dust off the coils.
