INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE HOW TO START THE REFRIGERATOR Leveling In the boiler ammonia vapor is distilled from an ammonia-water mixture and carried to the fined condenser, where it liquifies. The liqiud flows to the evaporator where it creates cold by evaporating into a circulating flow of hydrogen gas. If the evaporator coil is not level the liquid readily accumulates, forming pockets which can impair the gas circulation or even block it, in which case, of course, the cooling will stop.
Defrosting Shut off the refrigerator. tmpty the retrigerator leaving the drip tray under the finned evaporator and the cabinet and freezer doors open. If desired, defrosting may be speeded up by filling the ice tray with hot water and placing it in the freezer. When the frost on the tinned evaporator acti on has melted water will be collected in the drip tray. The drip tray should be emptied at regular intervals.
