5. CARE AND MAINTENANCE

DEFROST
It is unnecessary to defrost this appliance and this, even if there is ice build-up on the inner back wall because it will
defrost automatically.
 The ice build-up on the inner back wall during compressor operation will be automatically defrosted in a
compressor off cycle.
 When defrosting is in process, only the circulation fan runs.
 Defrost water will drain into the drip dish (which is found on the compressor) and the water will be evaporated
by the heat of the compressor.

 Upon installation of your new appliance, it is recommended that it be cleaned thoroughly.
 Unplug the unit from the wall outlet.

 Wash the inside with a damp warm cloth soaked in lukewarm water and baking soda solution. The solution
