I. Removal and Replacement of Defrost Heater

CAUTION

Be careful when handling both the old and new defrost heaters. The heaters
are sheathed in glass tubes and can possibly cause cuts if broken. The heater
will also be hot after a defrost. Use gloves when handling. Avoid touching the
glass directly; hold the heaters by the ends.

Pump‑Down Procedure." Once the refrigeration system cartridge is out, proceed to

3) Disconnect the defrost heater wires.
4) Carefully remove the defrost heater.

17 in "IV.B.2. Pump‑Down Procedure" for
refrigeration system cartridge replacement.
