FAQs

How do I defrost the freezer?

Unplug the fridge freezer and allow the ice to melt naturally. You can speed up the process by placing a bowl of warm water inside. Make sure to dry the interior before turning it back on.

What is the correct temperature setting?

Start with the recommended settings in the user manual. Adjust the temperature based on your needs and the ambient temperature.

How do I clean the fridge freezer?

Wipe the interior and exterior surfaces with a damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive cleaners.

What should I do if the door seal is damaged?

Contact customer service to order a replacement door seal. A damaged seal can reduce the efficiency of the appliance.

How often should I clean the condenser coils?

It is recommended to clean the condenser coils at the back of the fridge freezer at least twice a year to maintain optimal performance.

Can I store hot food directly in the fridge?

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

Troubleshooting

Fridge or freezer not cooling.

Check the power supply, ensure the thermostat is correctly set, and check for any obstructions to airflow inside the appliance.

Defrost the freezer manually and check the door seal for any damage. Ensure food is properly stored to minimize moisture.
