Maintenance

Proper maintenance of your U-Line product will ensure efficiency, top performance and long life. The maintenance intervals listed are based on normal conditions. You may want to shorten the intervals if you have pets or other special considerations.

Defrosting

Frost-Free Models

Frost-free models do not produce frost in normal operating conditions.

WARNING

DO NOT use any type of electrical heating device, ice pick, knife or other sharp instrument to defrost; this could damage the inner lining or refrigeration system and void the warranty.

Condenser Cleaning

Interval - Every Three Months

To maintain operational efficiency, keep the front grille free of dust and lint and clean the condenser every three months. Depending on environmental conditions, more or less frequent cleaning may be necessary.

WARNING
