Defrosting

The refrigerator compartment will automatically defrost. The water from defrosting drains through the hole in the bottom of the inside of the refrigerator and accumulates in drip pan. Never cover the drain hole with food or any other material. Check the drain hole frequently, to be sure that it is not clogged or blocked in any way. From time to time, clean the drain by pouring 1 cup of warm water into it.

The freezer compartment requires defrosting from time to time. Defrost whenever frost on the wall of the freezer compartment becomes 1/4-inch thick. Never use a sharp or metallic instrument or an electric appliance to remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils. (A punctured cooling coil will cause serious problems and void the warranty). We recommend using the plastic scraper included with your refrigerator.

Prior to defrosting, increase your temperature control dial to "7" and allow the refrigerator to run for 12 hours. This will help to eliminate defrosting of foods when they are removed from the freezer compartment. To defrost, set temperature control dial to "0" and unplug the refrigerator. Remove foods and ice cube tray from the freezer compartment. Wrap foods in several layers of newspaper and store in a cold place. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster, keep the door open and place a bowl of warm water in the freezer compartment. During defrosting, remove the melted ice from the bottom of the freezer compartment with a sponge. When all ice has melted, wipe the freezer compartment with a damp cloth. Dry thoroughly with a soft cloth.

Turn the temperature control to the desired setting and return foods and ice cube tray to the freezer compartment.
