Defrosting Your Refrigerator; Normal Operating Sounds You May Hear - Haier HSB03VS - 2.7 Cu Ft Compact User Manual

Defrosting Your Refrigerator

• For maximum energy efficiency, defrost freezer
section whenever frost accumulates to a thickness
of 1/4" or more on freezer walls. Note that
frost tends to accumulate more during the
summer months.
• To defrost freezer, remove food and ice cube tray from the freezer section. Your
model requires you to place the drip tray under the freezer section (see Fig. 3). To
defrost turn the temperature control dial to the OFF position. Defrosting may take
a few hours. To speed up defrost time, keep the door open and place a bowl of
warm water in the refrigerator.
• During the defrost cycle, water will accumulate in the drip tray. The drip tray may
also need to be emptied during the defrost process. Do not leave unattended.
• After defrosting, empty and wipe down the drip tray, as well as the interior of the
refrigerator. You may now reset your refrigerator to the desired temperature and
return food.

Normal Operating Sounds You May Hear

• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of the
refrigerant circulating through the cooling coils.
• The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.
