Hi.
You cannot manually initiate a defrost check on this unit because this is an automatic self defrost cycling fridge/freezer.
There is no way to start a manual defrost check. Manual defrost can be done disconnecting the power plug from main overnight. In that case check the drain pan located at the bottom of the unit before defrost is done.
If there is ice buildup on condenser coil, then defrost system is malfunctioning.
In that case the parts in the defrost system must be tested.
Here temporary link to user manual.
If that does not work, use this link.
Here link to part list and diagram.
Regards.
Hi,
Normally when frost build up occurs it's because warmer outside air is getting into the freezer and the moisture from that warm air cools and condensates then freezes into frost or ice. You either have a bad seal like the other listing states try leveling the front a little higher than the back. Or you may have an issue with the defrost heater, thermostat or timer. Do you have a light that comes on from time to time? If so you have an auto defrost unit. If there is no light you may not have a frost free freezer which means you will have to remove the frost manually.
