CAUTION:
High temperatures can cause the inside
surfaces of the refrigerator to warp or melt. Do not
use pans of HOT water, a hair dryer, or any other high
temperature devices to defrost the refrigerator. Do not use
any hard or sharp objects to remove frost. Damage to the
interior of the refrigerator can occur.
- To increase the speed of defrosting, put pans of WARM
water in the refrigerator.
- Remove the wet towels (etc.) and dry the interior.
- Start up the refrigerator.
- Allow the refrigerator to cool down.
- Return all food to the refrigerator.

Cleaning

A good time to clean the refrigerator is just after you defrost it. To
avoid food odors, clean the inside of the refrigerator as often as
necessary:
- Remove all food from the refrigerator.
NOTE: Do not use abrasive cleaners, chemicals, or
scouring pads because they can damage the
interior of the refrigerator.
- Wash the interior with a solution of dish detergent and warm
water.
- Rinse with a solution of baking soda and clean water.
- Dry with clean cloth.
- Put all food in the refrigerator.

Door Sealing

If the door does not seal correctly, excess frost will collect inside
the refrigerator. Make sure the door seals correctly:
- Close the door on a piece of paper that is about the size of a
dollar bill (See Art00980).
- Gently pull the paper.
- You should feel a slight drag between the door gasket
and the cabinet.
- Do this on all four sides of the door.
- If you do not feel drag on the paper, the door gasket is not
sealing correctly.
- Contact your dealer or Norcold authorized service center.
