Defrosting the Unit
The unit uses an automatic defrost system in which the refrigerated
surfaces of the unit defrost automatically. Defrost water drains into a
hole in the floor of the storage compartment and is channeled into a
drain pan located at the back of the unit near the compressor. Heat
transferred from the compressor evaporates any water that has
collected in the pan. Be sure the drain hole in the floor of the unit is
clear and unobstructed.
