DEFROSTING
This appliance is equipped with a "Frost Free" type cooling system, which means it never has to be
manually defrosted. Defrosting is done automatically by means of a defrost heating element and a
defrost timer that will cycle on and off as the appliance operates. The defrost water is routed into a
defrost pan located beside the compressor, where it then evaporates.
CLEANING
1. Remove all contents and unplug the appliance.
2. Using a mild detergent and warm water solution, use a clean damp cloth or sponge to wipe the
inside of the appliance.
3. Do not use abrasive or harsh cleaners. Hand wash, rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly. Do not
use cleaning waxes, detergents, bleach etc. on the appliance. Never use paper towel, window
spray, scouring cleansers or fl ammable cleaners as they can scratch and damage the appliance.
Clean with a damp cloth and dry with a soft clean dry cloth.
