Food Storage Basket; Defrosting And Draining - Igloo FRF452-C User Manual

Food Storage Basket

• Your freezer has a basket. Removable basket allows you
to store food more accessibly or you can remove it if not needed.

Defrosting and Draining

• For most efficient operation and minimum energy consumption, defrost
whenever the frost becomes 1/4" thick. Never use a sharp or metal-
lic instrument to remove the frost, as it may damage the cooling coils.
(A punctured coil will void the warranty). Use only provided plastic
scraper. Do not use boiling water as it may damage the unit.
• Remove frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to
protect the food.
• Unplug the unit. Defrosting usually takes a few hours. To defrost faster
keep the freezer door open.
• For draining, place a tray beneath the outer drain plug. Unscrew and
remove drain plug. This will let the water flow out in the tray. When
done, screw on the drain plug in place.
Note: monitor the container under the drain to avoid overflow.
• When draining is complete, wipe the interior of the freezer with a soft
cloth. Plug in power cord back into the electrical outlet.
• Reset the temperature control to the desired setting.
• Return the food into the freezer.
