DESCRIPTION OF PARTS AND CONTROLS 3
For the most efficient operation of the refrigerator with
the minimum electric consumption, defrost the freezer
whenever the layer of ice/frost on the walls of the
evaporator reaches a quarter of an inch thick.
Dial-setting defrosting
To defrost, turn control to 0 (see fig.). Remove frozen or
perishable foods and keep the drip tray inplace. Defrosting
usually takes a few hours, depending on the outside
temperature.
To defrost quickly, remove all foods from the refrigerator
and leave door open. Never use a knife or other metal
instrument to remove ice from the evaporator, because this
might damage the sensitive aggregate.
After defrosting, remove drip tray and dispose of water.
Turn thermostat dial to desired position and refrigeration
starts.
