FAQs

What is LowFrost technology and how does it benefit me?

LowFrost technology uses hidden cooling circuits to minimize ice formation inside the freezer. This means you'll need to defrost your freezer much less often, saving you time and effort, while maintaining efficient cooling.

How does AI CoolAssist work to save energy?

AI CoolAssist learns your usage patterns and automatically adjusts cooling settings. For example, it can optimize cooling after you've loaded groceries or enter a low-activity 'Vacation Mode' when you're away, contributing to potential energy savings.

What are the required dimensions for installation?

The appliance requires a niche of 1780mm in height, 560mm in width, and 550mm in depth for proper integrated installation.

Can the door be opened from the left side?

Yes, the appliance features a reversible door, meaning it can be installed to open from either the right or the left, depending on your kitchen layout.

What is the purpose of the Extra Freeze function?

The Extra Freeze function temporarily activates maximum freezing power when you add new items to the freezer. This helps to freeze fresh food quickly, preserving its quality and nutrients, before automatically reverting to normal settings.

What does the audible and visual door alarm indicate?

The alarm sounds and flashes if a door is left open for too long, helping to alert you to prevent temperature fluctuations and potential food spoilage. It can be switched off.

What is the energy efficiency rating of this fridge freezer?

This model has an energy efficiency rating of E, according to the EU energy labelling system.

Troubleshooting

Appliance not cooling sufficiently

Check that the thermostat is set correctly. Ensure the doors are closing properly and not being held open. Verify that vents inside the appliance are not blocked by food items. Check that the condenser coils (if accessible) are clean.

Excessive ice build-up in the freezer

Although LowFrost reduces ice, check door seals for damage or gaps that might let warm air in. Avoid placing hot food directly into the freezer. If extensive ice forms, a manual defrost may be necessary.

Appliance making unusual noises

Normal operating sounds include humming and occasional clicking. Loud or persistent buzzing or rattling might indicate the appliance is not level. Ensure it's not touching adjacent cabinets or walls.

Water leaking inside or outside the appliance

Check the defrost drain hole at the back of the fridge compartment; it may be blocked. Ensure the appliance is level, which can affect water drainage. For external leaks, check water supply connections if applicable, or contact customer service.

Care:

  • Cleaning: Regularly clean the interior with a mild detergent and water. Ensure shelves and drawers are removed and cleaned separately. The exterior can be wiped with a damp cloth.
  • Defrosting: While LowFrost technology reduces ice build-up, occasional defrosting may still be required. To defrost, switch off the appliance, empty it, and leave the doors open. Place towels to catch melting ice. Never use sharp objects to remove ice.
  • Ventilation: Ensure adequate ventilation around the appliance as per the installation manual, especially if it's enclosed within cabinetry.
