If you have a Whirlpool 6th Sense fridge freezer, you might wonder how to defrost it and how it works. The 6th Sense technology is a feature that automatically adjusts the temperature and humidity levels in your fridge freezer to keep your food fresh and prevent frost buildup. In this post, we’ll show you how to defrost a Whirlpool 6th Sense fridge freezer and how it works.
To defrost a Whirlpool 6th Sense fridge freezer, you need to turn off the appliance and unload the freezer. Then, place a tray or a towel under the freezer to catch any dripping water. Next, wait for the ice to melt or use a hair dryer or a bowl of hot water to speed up the process. Finally, clean and dry the freezer with a cloth and soap.
The first step is to turn off the appliance and unload the freezer. This will prevent any electric shock or damage to your appliance.
To turn off the appliance, you need to unplug it or switch off the power at the electrical outlet. To unload the freezer, you need to remove all the food items from the freezer and store them in a cooler or another freezer. You can also wrap them in newspapers or blankets to keep them cold.
The next step is to place a tray or a towel under the freezer to catch any dripping water. This will prevent any water from spilling on your floor or damaging your appliance.
Depending on your model, your freezer may have a drain system that allows the water to flow out of the appliance. If so, you need to remove the drain cover and the rubber stopper from inside the bottom of the freezer. Then, turn the drain so that the arrow is pointing downward and place a pan under it or attach a hose to it.
If your model does not have a drain system, you need to use a sponge or a baster to remove excess water from the freezer bottom and empty it into a large pan.
The last step is to wait for the ice to melt or use a hair dryer or a bowl of hot water to speed up the process. This will remove any frost or ice that has formed on the walls, shelves, or drawers of your freezer.
To wait for the ice to melt, you need to leave the door open and let the warm air circulate inside. This may take several hours depending on how much ice there is.
To use a hair dryer or a bowl of hot water, you need to plug in the hair dryer or fill up the bowl with hot water. Then, direct the hot air or steam towards the ice and melt it gently. Do not use any sharp tools or chemicals to scrape or chip off the ice, as this may damage your freezer.
The final step is to clean and dry the freezer with a cloth and soap. This will remove any dirt, dust, or residue from your freezer.
To clean and dry the freezer, you need to mix some mild detergent with warm water or use some baking soda with warm water. Then, dip a cloth into the solution and wipe down the inside of your freezer. Rinse and dry thoroughly with another cloth.
You can also use some rubbing alcohol or vinegar to disinfect and deodorize your freezer. Apply some rubbing alcohol or vinegar to a cloth and wipe down your freezer. Rinse and dry thoroughly.
