Defrosting Instructions
In most climates, defrosting will be necessary only about
twice a year.
To have your freezer operate most efficiently, do not
permit more than 1/4" (6 mm) thickness of frost, on
average, to accumulate on the walls.
Do not use hard plastic scraper or wood spatula to
remove the frost on the wall and on the bottom of the
freezer. It may damage the interior surface. Use soft
tower or sponge to remove frost.
Do not use boiling water as it may damage the freezer.
For Complete Defrosting
1. Turn the temperature control to Off setting and
unplug the freezer.
2. Remove all food and place it in corrugated boxes,
insulated bags, picnic coolers, etc. Use towels and
newspapers for insulation as needed.
3. Place a tray (not included) in front of the freezer,
beneath the exterior drain plug to collect the water.
Pull out the exterior drain plug entirely. Pull out the
interior drain plug. This allows the water to flow out
into the tray.
NOTE: Water that has accumulated at the bottom of
the freezer during defrosting will drain into the tray.
Monitor the tray under the drain to avoid overflow.

Risk of fire or explosion.
WARNING
Flammable refrigerant used.
Do not use an ice pick or a metal or sharp-edged
instrument to remove the frost as it may puncture the
freezer liner and then the flammable refrigerant tubing
behind it.
Do not use any electrical device to defrost your
freezer.
4. With the lid open, you may choose to use pans of hot
tap water less than 120°F (49°C) to speed defrosting.
Directing air from an electric fan into the freezer will
also help. Do not place fan or any electrical device in
the freezer. Remove large pieces before they melt.
5. Wipe water from walls with a towel or sponge.
6. After defrosting, clean the inside of the freezer (see
Care and Cleaning).
7. Replace the drain plugs.
8. Plug in the freezer. Return the temperature control to
its previous position and return food to the freezer.
WARNING
Freezer must be unplugged to avoid
electrical hazard from power source when defrosting
