Door Ajar Alarm
If the interior temperature is higher than 73°F (23°C), “HI” is shown on the temperature control panel and the
temperature alarm will sound connuously aer one (1) hour. This indicates that the inner temperature is too
high. If the inner temperature is lower than 25°F (-4°C), “LO” is shown on the temperature display panel and
the temperature alarm will sound connuously aer een mintues. If one of these situaons occurs please
reference the troubleshoong secon found in this manual or contact Avallon for support.
This refrigerator includes a door ajar alarm, which will sound if the door is open for more than three (3) minutes.
Leaving the door open for extended periods of me will cause poor cooling performance and may shorten the
life of the refrigerator. Keep the doors closed as much as possible.
Warning: Never aempt to remove frost with a sharp object!

Defrosting
Note that under most refrigerang sengs, the unit will automacally defrost under most ambient condions.
However, on colder sengs, some frost may build up. Addionally, the more humid the ambient condions, the
more frost may build up. Keep the door closed as much as possible and avoid opening the door unnecessarily to
minimize frost build-up.
If frost is prevenng the door from closing properly, you may need to power the unit o unl the frost melts. Use
a so absorbent towel to dry the unit.
Your new refrigerator may make noise during normal operaon. Most of these sounds are normal. Hard
surfaces like the oor and walls can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are.
The following describes several sounds you may hear and what may be making them:
• Raling noises may come from the ow of the refrigerant or the water line. Items stored on top of the
refrigerator can also make noises.
• The high eciency compressor may make a pulsang or high-pitched sound.
• Water running from the evaporator to the water bin may make a splashing sound.
• As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant owing in your refrigerator.
• You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the condenser fan.
