• Take care when cleaning the rear of the
appliance. Sharp edges can cut.
Condensation and ice will form with frequent and
prolonged opening of the doors.
Operating outside of the recommend temperature
range and placing next to a heat source will also
increase the amount of ice and condensation.
Excessive ice will result in longer running times
that will increase energy consumption and increase
the deterioration of components.
