DEFROST FREEZER
For large units only: Please unplug the refrigerator, place a towel underneath the unit, and leave the door open for at least 8 hours to allow it to fully defrost. Do not scrape or chip away the ice, as this can damage the unit. Allow the ice to melt naturally into the drip tray. Once fully defrosted, make sure all water is removed from the refrigerator, including the drip tray located underneath the freezer.
