Defrosting and Deodorizing
Never remove ice with a sharp object or screwdriver.

Defrosting and Deodorizing

When the ice layer on the inner cabinet sides is over 0.2”, the defrosting operation should be performed to improve the refrigerating efficiency. To do this, follow these steps below:

1. Turn off the power, and remove all items inside the freezer.

2. Allow the ice to completely melt.

3.Remove the drain plug and drain all water. Once the unit is defrosted and all the water has drained out, clean the interior with a soft rag before using the unit.

Tip: To remove unpleasant odors place a piece of charcoal in the chest
