FAQs

What does 'Total No Frost' mean for me?

Total No Frost technology circulates cold air evenly throughout the fridge and freezer. This prevents ice from forming on the walls, meaning you never have to manually defrost your appliance. It also helps keep food fresher for longer by maintaining a consistent temperature and reducing humidity.

How do I use the Fresh Converter crisper drawer?

The Fresh Converter switch allows you to adjust the temperature within the crisper drawer. Slide the switch up for short-term storage of fish or fresh foods requiring slightly colder conditions, or slide it down to create an ideal environment for fruits and vegetables.

What is the benefit of the Super Freeze function?

Super Freeze rapidly lowers the freezer temperature to its coldest setting for up to 50 hours. This is ideal for quickly freezing newly added items, which helps to lock in their freshness, taste, texture, and nutritional value more effectively than gradual freezing.

How energy efficient is this fridge freezer?

This fridge freezer has an energy efficiency class of E. Its annual energy consumption is rated at 250 kWh. It also features an Eco Mode to help optimize energy usage during less demanding periods.

What is the storage time during a power failure?

In the event of a power failure, the freezer can store food safely for up to 10.5 hours, ensuring that your frozen items remain at a safe temperature for an extended period.

How much can this fridge freezer hold?

The total net capacity is 320 Litres. The fridge compartment offers 191 Litres of space, and the freezer compartment provides 129 Litres of storage.

What is the noise level of this appliance?

The noise emission class is C, with a noise level of 39 decibels (dB). This is a relatively quiet operating noise for a fridge freezer.

Troubleshooting

Fridge freezer is not cooling or freezing.

Check if the power cord is securely plugged in. Ensure the thermostat is set to a cooling temperature. Verify that the doors are closing properly and that the ventilation is not blocked.

Excessive noise.

Ensure the appliance is level on the floor using the adjustable feet. Check that no items inside or outside are vibrating against the unit. Some operational noises are normal.

Water leaking inside the fridge.

Ensure the drain hole at the back of the fridge compartment is not blocked. Check that the temperature is not set too low, causing condensation to freeze and then melt.

Interior light not working.

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

Food is freezing in the fridge compartment.

Adjust the fridge temperature to a slightly warmer setting. Ensure food items are not placed too close to the air vents at the back of the compartment.
