CAUTION
Do not use boiling water because it may damage the plastic parts. In
addition, never use a sharp or metallic instrument to remove frost as it
may damage the cooling coils and will void the warranty. We recommend
using a plastic scraper.
“ Remove the frozen food from the freezer and place it in a cooler to
protect the food.
• During the defrost cycle, the ice melts into the water collection tray. The
water must be removed from the water collection tray.
• Dry the water collection tray and evaporators.
Using Your Ice Cube Trav

with the frozen foods manufacturer's instructions for a three star frozen
food storage compartment or home freezer.
• Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase.
If there are instructions on the packet, carefully follow the these
