Seals

Checking Door Seals

 

The door gaskets must seal completely around the entire length of the door. This will insure cooling efficiency

and prevent frost formation. Frequent frost formation or reduced cooling can be indications of air leaks.

Door

To check for proper door seal, lay a long narrow strip of paper between the gasket and the refrigerator. Close

the door and withdraw the paper. A frictional drag should be observed. Repeat all around the doors. If the paper

does not have a noticeable drag, the gasket is not sealing. Contact your service agency for corrective procedures.

 

 

 

Defrosting

 

 

After a period of operation, frost may accumulate on the freezer plate and the cooling fins, impairing cooling

efficiency. Refrigerator efficiency can be improved by periodically defrosting the refrigerator.

To defrost the refrigerator, set the "Elec-Off- Gas" control knob to "Off". Empty the refrigerator, leaving the drip

 

 

tray under the cooling fins and the doors open. To quicken the defrost cycle, fill a pan with hot water and place it

 

in the freezer. When the frost has melted, empty the drip tray and wipe it with a clean cloth. Replace the drip tray.

 

Replace all food and restart the refrigerator. Set the "Elec-Off-Gas" control knob to the desired mode of operation.

 

Set the thermostat to its maximum setting for several hours before returning it to a normal setting.
