Defrosting
and Draining
the Freezer:
• Defrost whenever
the frost becomes
1/4"
thick. Never use a sharp or
metallic
instrument
to remove
the frost as it may damage
the cooling
coils. (A punctured
coil will void the warranty)
• Turn the temperature
control
to OFF position
and unplug
the unit.
Remove the drain
plug from the inside of the freezer (see fig. #3a).
Defrosting
usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster keep the
freezer door open.
• For draining,
place a tray beneath
the outer drain
plug. Pull out the
drain
dial (see fig. #3b) and rotate it so that the arrow
points down-
ward.
This will let the water
flow out in the tray. When
done,
push the
drain
dial in and turn the arrow
to the up position.
Re-plug the drain
plug inside the freezer compartment.
Note:
monitor
the container
under
the drain
to avoid overflow.
• Wipe
the interior
of the freezer
and replace
the electrical
plug in
the electrical
outlet.
• Reset the temperature
control to the desired setting.
