ATTENTION:

Defrosting—Do not use sharp, pointed 
objects to remove frost or ice from 
surfaces of the freezer compartment. 
Doing so could puncture the cooling 
coil, causing the unit to lose its ability 
to maintain cold temperatures and 
voiding the warranty. See the Care and 
Cleaning section for instructions on 
defrosting the freezer compartment.
