Full details

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure optimal performance, place the fridge on a level surface with adequate space around the sides and top to allow for proper airflow. Ensure the ambient room temperature does not exceed 32°C, as the cooling efficiency will drop significantly in hot kitchens.
For routine maintenance:
- Keep the condenser coils free of dust to maintain cooling efficiency.
- Wipe down the interior and exterior stainless steel using food-safe, non-abrasive cleaners.
- Regularly check that the door seal is clean and airtight to prevent cold air leakage.
- Defrost the unit if ice buildup is detected on the evaporator plate.
