FAQs
How often should I defrost the freezer?
The Low Frost system reduces the need for frequent defrosting. Defrost when ice build-up becomes excessive, typically once or twice a year, or as needed.
What is the warranty period?
The standard warranty period is two years. Refer to the product documentation for specific terms and conditions.
Can I reverse the door hinges myself?
Yes, the door hinges can be reversed for flexible installation. Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions or consider professional assistance.
How do I clean the VitaFresh drawer?
Remove the drawer and wash it with warm, soapy water. Ensure it is completely dry before replacing it.
What should I do if the fridge is making strange noises?
Some noises are normal. However, if the noise is unusual, ensure the fridge is level, that items are not touching the back, and the appliance is not touching any other objects.
How do I replace the interior LED light?
Refer to the user manual for instructions on replacing the LED light. Ensure the appliance is unplugged before attempting to replace the light.
Troubleshooting
Fridge/Freezer not cooling.
Check the power supply, ensure the appliance is switched on and the temperature controls are correctly set. Check for any obstructions to airflow, and ensure the door seals properly.
Excessive frost build-up.
Check the door seal for any gaps or damage. Ensure the door is closing properly. The Low Frost system minimizes frost, but periodic manual defrosting might still be necessary.
Unusual noises.
Some noises are normal (e.g., the compressor). If noises are excessive or new, check if the appliance is level and that nothing is touching the back.
Water leakage.
Check the drain hole inside the fridge is not blocked. Ensure the door seals properly. If the issue persists, contact customer support.
