TEMPERATURE SELECTION
DEFROSTING YOUR APPLIANCE
This refrigerator is equipped with a “Push Button” (semi-automatic) defrost system. To activate the defrost cycle, simply
push (in) the red defrost button located on the centre of the knob/dial (do not turn the control knob/dial to the zero/off
position). The defrost cycle is initiated immediately. When defrosting is complete, the “Push Button” will release (pop-out)
automatically and resume normal operating conditions at the same temperature setting.
Note:
If the “Push Button” is activated (pushed in) accidentally, it will not be possible to “manually” pull out the push but-
ton (deactivate the defrost cycle). You must let the defrost cycle run its course.
Defrosting of your refrigerator should take place whenever ice build-up inside the freezer compartment reaches 1/4” (3-5
mm) thick.
Note:
Never use sharp or pointed instruments to remove ice from the freezer compartment.
Do not allow the refrigera-
tor to continue operation if the freezer compartment is pierced.
When the refrigerator is not to be used for a long period of time, disconnect the appliance from the electrical supply and
leave the door partially open. This will help reduce mold and mildew build-up.
To turn the control to the OFF position, rotate the control knob to “0”. Min is the warmest
setting where max is the coolest setting. Changes in ambient room temperature will affect
internal refrigerator temperatures (choose the correct setting on the thermostat knob).
