Defrosting
Preparing the Refrigerator for Storage
Note that under most refrigerating settings, the unit will automatically defrost in most ambient conditions.
However, on colder settings, some frost may build up. Additionally, the more humid the ambient
conditions, the more frost may build up. Keep the door closed as much as possible and avoid opening
the door unnecessarily to minimize frost build-up. If frost is preventing the door from closing properly,
you may need to power the unit off until the frost melts. Use a soft absorbent towel to dry the unit.
If the refrigerator will not be used for a long time, or is to be moved to another place, it will be necessary
to defrost the unit and dry the interior.
1. Disconnect the Refrigerator from the power supply by removing the power plug from the wall socket.
2. Leave the door open to allow for air circulation and to prevent mold, mildew, and unpleasant smells.
Caution:
Store the unit out of reach from children. If you have children, you may want to
take precautions such as removing the door to prevent a child from being trapped inside.

Cleaning and Maintenance
Periodic cleaning and proper maintenance will ensure efficiency, top performance, and long life.
The door and cabinet may be cleaned with a mild detergent or hand soap mixed with warm water.
Do not use solvent based or abrasive cleaners. Use a soft sponge and rinse with clean water. Wipe
with a soft clean towel to prevent water spotting. If the door panel is stainless steel, it can discolor
when exposed to chlorine gas and moisture. Clean stainless steel using a cloth dampened with a mild
detergent and warm water solution. Never use an abrasive or caustic cleaning agent.
The refrigerator’s interior should be cleaned occasionally.
1. Disconnect power to the unit.
2. Open the door and remove the contents and shelves.
3. Wait until the unit defrosts.
4. With a clean cloth, wipe down the interior of the unit.
5. Reinsert the shelves and items.
6. Reconnect power to the unit.
