DEFROSTING
THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT defrosts automatically. Drops of ice that form
on the back wall of the refrigerator compartment thaw during the time the compressor
is not working and the thaw water runs down the thaw water runoff channel to the tray
on top of the compressor (Fig. 1), where it evaporates.
Model MS317-2W (fig. 1)
FREEZER COMPARTMENT of gets defrosted automatically: it operates a frost-
free cooling system (No Frost). However, according to how often the freezer door
were opened and closed, and to - how warm products were placed into the
appliance, the frost can accumulate on walls of freezer inner liner and drawers. It is
normal. But the thicker is the layer of frost, the higher is a power consumption. In
case if No Frost system had not managed to evaporate the excess moisture and
the frost layer has formed on, you should defrost the appliance. To defrost the
appliance, follow the steps in sequence:
