DEFROST OPERATION
The Control Board adapts the compressor run time between defrosts to achieve optimum de-
frost intervals by monitoring the length of time the defrost heater is on. After initial power up,
defrost interval is 4 hours compressor run time. Defrost occurs immediately after the 4 hours
has elapsed.
