LEVELING INSTRUCTIONS
There is an adjustable foot on the bottom
of the appliance that can be turned up or

until the appliance is level.
If the temperature control knob adjusts
to the maximum setting,the compressor
may run continuously. It's a coldest mode.
Please do not adjust to the maximum
setting frequently.
Internal temperature of the appliance can
vary based on ambient temperature, the
quantity of items stored and how
frequently the door is opened.
DEFROSTING THE APPLIANCE
This refrigerator is equipped with a
“Push Button”defrost system. To activate the
defrost cycle, push the red defrost button
located on the center of the thermostat dial.
The defrost cycle is initiated immediately.
When defrosting is complete, the red button
will release and the refrigerator will resume
normal operating conditions.
Note:
If the red defrost button is pressed
accidentally, it is not possible to manually
deactivate the defrost cycle.
The defrost cycle must be allowed to run its
course.
Defrosting the refrigerator should take place
whenever ice build-up inside the freezer
compartment reaches 6 mm (1/4”) thick.
Defrosting may take a few hours, depending on
the amount of accumulated ice and ambient
indoor temperature.
To speed up the defrosting process, remove all
frozen foods from the freezer section and leave
the door open for a short period of time.
Monitor the refrigerator closely during the
defrosting process to avoid water spilling and
causing damage to flooring or counter tops.
Important:
Remember to close the refrigerator
door before the defrost cycle terminates and
normal operating conditions resume. The drip
tray should be in position directly below the
freezer compartment to catch condensed water
during defrosting.
Note:
Never use sharp or pointed instruments to
remove ice from the freezer compartment. The
freezer compartment contains refrigerated gas
lines and if accidentally pierced it will render the
refrigerator inoperable and void the
manufacturers warranty. Do not allow the
refrigerator to continue operation if the freezer
compartment is pierced.
