Hi Justaoldguy- This is Sue at GE Appliances. Thanks for considering our GE Profile Series Refrigerator! We apologize for the error. The refrigerator is Frost-Free (Frost Guard or Adaptive Defrost). You will not need to turn off the refrigerator for manual defrosting. The refrigerator will automatically defrost as needed. It accounts for door openings and usage to determine when it is necessary to defrost and how long the defrost cycle needs to run. If the refrigerator is not being frequently used (ex. family on vacation), it will not defrost as often. It also utilizes a "Pre-Chill" function to lower the freezer temperature prior to the defrost cycle. This lowering of freezer temperature allows the freezer to return to its set temperature point more quickly once the defrost cycle is complete. All this amounts to less thawing of foods and refreezing during the defrost cycle. The result is that it reduces freezer burn.
