• If the unit is unplugged, or shut off due to a power failure;
you must wait three to five minutes before restarting the unit.
If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the refrigerator will not start.
• Large amounts of food will lower the cooling efficiency of the appliance.
It is recommended that 70% of storage volume is loaded as too much food will affect
the cold air circulation.

compartment.

DEFROSTING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
1.
For the most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost the freezer
compartment when the frost on the freezer walls is 3 or 4 mm thick or more.
2.
Remove the frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to protect the food.
3.
Turn the thermostat knob to "0". The compressor will go off.
4.
During the defrost, the ice melts into the drip tray.
The water must be removed from the water collection tray.
5.
Dry the water collection tray and place it back under the freezer compartment.
6.
Clean the interior of the refrigerator and reset the thermostat to your desired setting.
You may now refill your refrigerator.
PLEASE NOTE: Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts.
In addition, never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it may damage
the cooling coils. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. Leaving the door open will help
speed up the process.
