Defrosting Your Freezer
•For the most efficient operation and minimumenergy consumption, defrost the
freezer when the frost on the freezer walls is excessive ( r/4to r/'2inch thick).
•Choose a time when the stock of frozen food is low.
CAUTION
Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In addition, never use a sharp or metallic instrumentto remove frost as it may damage the cooling coils and will void the warranty. We recommend usingthe plastic scraper provided with your unit.
