FAQs

How often should I clean my fridge freezer?

Clean the interior regularly, approximately every 1-3 months, or when spills occur. Clean the exterior as needed.

What should I do if the power goes out?

Keep the door closed. The Power Safe feature will keep food fresh for up to 9 hours. Discard any food that has thawed and been at room temperature for an extended period.

Can I put hot food directly into the fridge?

No, let hot food cool down to room temperature before placing it in the fridge to avoid raising the internal temperature and affecting other stored items.

What is the ideal temperature for the fridge and freezer?

The ideal fridge temperature is between 3°C and 5°C. The ideal freezer temperature is -18°C.

What is Total No Frost?

Total No Frost prevents ice build-up in the freezer, eliminating the need for manual defrosting.

What is the warranty period?

Please refer to the product documentation for warranty details. Typically, major appliances have a warranty of at least one year.

Place the refrigerator in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight, heat sources, and in a location that is easily accessible.
