Refrigerator Care Checklist

Your refrigerator will give you years of trouble free service if you do these simple checks every three to six months:
- Keep the food compartment and the freezer clean. See "Cleaning".
- Defrost the refrigerator as necessary. See "Defrosting".
- Make sure the door seals correctly. See "Door Sealing".
- Be aware of any cooling changes that are not because of weather, loading, or gas control changes. If changes occur, contact your
dealer or service center.
- Make sure the gas supply is propane gas only and not butane or a butane mixture.
- When in propane gas operation, examine the appearance of the flame. See "Gas Flame Appearance".
- Make sure the air flow in the lower intake vent, through the refrigerator coils and condenser, and out the upper exhaust vent is not
blocked or decreased.
- Make sure the area behind the refrigerator is clear. Do not use the area behind the refrigerator for storage of anything, especially
gasoline and other flammable vapors and liquids.

Defrosting

The cooling fins of the refrigerator operate at below freezing temperature and will naturally form frost from humidity, which is always
present in the air. The humidity inside the refrigerator increases:
- with higher outside temperature and humidity.
- with the storage of non-sealed fresh foods or warm foods.
- with the amount of time that the door(s) are open.
- with any air leakage into the refrigerator.
Although the refrigerator is not frost -free, it is made to limit frost on the cooling fins. At regular intervals, the temperature control system
automatically melts most of the frost from the cooling fins. The water from the cooling fins drains into a collection cup that is attached to
the back of the refrigerator. The heat of the cooling system evaporates the water from the collection cup.
It is normal for frost to collect inside the freezer. Excess frost decreases the cooling performance of the refrigerator. Defrost the
refrigerator and freezer as necessary:
- Remove all food from the refrigerator.
- Turn the refrigerator OFF.
NOTICE
Defrosting the refrigerator makes excess water inside the refrigerator.
- Remove the drain hose from the drip cup at the rear of the refrigerator.
- Put the drain hose into a half-gallon or larger container to capture water.
