• 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.
For draining, place a tray beneath the outer drain plug. Pull out the
drain dial (see fig. #2a) and rotate it so that the arrow points down
ward. This will let the water flow out into the tray.
• Remove the drain plug from the inside of the freezer (see fig. #2b).
Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster keep the
freezer door open. 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.
