Troubleshooting

Appliance not cooling

Check if the power cord is securely plugged in. Ensure the temperature settings are correct. Verify that the doors are closing properly and not being blocked. Allow 24 hours for the appliance to reach the set temperature after initial setup or significant temperature changes.

Unusual noise

Ensure the appliance is level. Check if it's touching any walls or cabinets. Some operational noises, like gurgling or humming, are normal due to the refrigeration system.

Frost building up in the freezer

Although it has No Frost, ensure the doors are sealing correctly and not left ajar. Check if large amounts of warm, moist air are entering the freezer (e.g., storing open containers of liquid). If excessive frost persists, contact customer support.

Water leaking inside or outside

Check the defrost drain hole inside the fridge compartment is not blocked. Ensure the appliance is level. If water is leaking from the back, check the drain hose connection (if applicable) and ensure it's directed into a drip tray or drain.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: Ensure the appliance is placed on a level surface using the adjustable leveling feet. Allow at least 5cm of space around the back and sides for ventilation. The zero-clearance design allows it to be placed directly against walls, but ensure the doors can open fully. For a professional installation, consult the user manual. The doors are reversible; follow the instructions in the manual for swapping the hinge side.

Compatibility: This model operates effectively in ambient temperatures between -15°C and 43°C, making it compatible with most indoor environments and even unheated outbuildings in cooler climates.

Care: Clean the interior regularly with a soft cloth dampened with mild detergent and water. Wipe dry. The exterior cream finish can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Ensure the condenser coils at the back (if accessible) are kept free of dust for optimal efficiency. The No Frost system reduces the need for manual defrosting, but occasional checks and cleaning are still recommended.
