Defrosting is necessary to maintain its efficiency and each type has its own advantages depending on user needs and preferences. Manual defrost appliances require unplugging to melt ice naturally, but offer more space, lower energy consumption, and lower cost without the internal heating element. Frost-free appliances regulate temperature to prevent ice build-up automatically. Automatic defrost systems use a timer to circulate heat and prevent ice accumulation, while adaptive defrost systems use sensors to determine the optimal times for heat circulation.)

Q: Are the doors delivered as separate from the refrigerator? Meaning, are the doors installed on the appropriate (left, right) configuration AFTER refrigerator is placed in the kitchen? A narrow kitchen entryway is a factor in selection.

Also, the door swing is reversible.

Q: # GIE16GSHSS It says that the side cabinet color is silver. Does that mean it is really light gray or is it really a silver color? I don't think I have seen refrigerator with silver sides, mainly black and gray or light gray sides.

A: The sides of the doors are silver, like the front. The sides of the refrigerator are black, but you cannot see the sides the way our refrigerator is installed. .
