Product Information

Full details

The Montpellier MAB190K Fridge Freezer is for those seeking a stylish, retro-inspired appliance that doesn't compromise on modern functionality. Its key benefit is offering a generous 295-litre capacity with No Frost technology, ensuring efficient cooling and less maintenance. A potential caveat is its 'E' energy efficiency rating, which is less economical than newer ratings. This freestanding fridge freezer combines vintage aesthetics with practical features like adjustable shelves and a 4-star freezer rating.

FAQs

What does the 'E' energy rating mean?

An 'E' energy rating indicates the appliance's energy efficiency according to the current EU energy labelling standards. While functional, it is less energy-efficient compared to appliances with ratings like A, B, or C.

How often does the freezer need defrosting?

Thanks to the No Frost technology, this freezer does not require manual defrosting. The system automatically prevents ice build-up.

What is the warranty period for this fridge freezer?

The Montpellier MAB190K comes with a 2-year guarantee.

Can the door be reversed on this model?

Information regarding door reversal is typically found in the user manual. It is recommended to consult the manual or contact customer support for specific instructions if available.

What is the capacity of the fridge and freezer compartments?

The total capacity is 295 litres. The product description specifies a generous fresh storage capacity with multiple shelves and door balconies, and a 3-drawer freezer section. Specific internal splits are not detailed but are designed for balanced fresh and frozen storage.

Can I store open food containers in the fridge?

Yes, you can store open food containers. However, it is recommended to cover food to prevent odour transfer and maintain freshness. The salad crisper is designed for unwrapped produce.

Troubleshooting

Appliance not cooling effectively

Ensure the thermostat is set correctly. Check that the doors are closing fully and seals are clean. Verify that ventilation is not obstructed and that the appliance is not overloaded.

Excessive condensation or frost build-up (despite No Frost)

This can sometimes occur if the doors are left open too long or frequently. Ensure door seals are intact and clean. Check for blockages in the air vents.

Unusual noises

Some humming or gurgling sounds are normal. If noises are loud or persistent, check if the appliance is level and not touching adjacent surfaces.

Interior light not working

The LED light may need replacement. Consult the user manual or contact customer support for assistance.

Appliance won't turn on

Check that the power cord is securely plugged in and that the circuit breaker or fuse is functioning. Try a different power outlet.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Placement: Ensure the fridge freezer is placed on a level surface in a well-ventilated area, away from direct sunlight and heat sources like ovens or radiators. Allow at least 5cm of space around the back and sides for proper air circulation.
  2. Power: Plug the appliance into a suitable, grounded electrical socket. Allow the appliance to stand for at least 4 hours before switching it on to allow the refrigerant to settle.
  3. Temperature Setting: Adjust the thermostat to the recommended setting. Refer to the user manual for specific guidance on optimal temperatures for the fridge and freezer compartments.

Compatibility:

  • This is a freestanding appliance and is not designed for built-in installation.
  • Ensure your kitchen space can accommodate its dimensions: Height: 190.1 cm, Width: 60.5 cm, Depth: 63.1 cm.

Care:

  • Cleaning: To clean the interior, use a soft cloth dampened with lukewarm water and a mild detergent. Avoid abrasive cleaners or solvents. Wipe the door seals regularly.
  • Exterior: Clean the exterior with a damp cloth. For the black finish, a specialist cleaner might be beneficial to avoid streaks.
  • Ventilation: Periodically check that the ventilation slots are not blocked by dust or debris.
  • Defrosting: The No Frost feature means manual defrosting is not required. Simply wipe away any condensation that may appear, especially after loading large amounts of fresh food.
