Troubleshooting
Fridge is not cooling or is not cold enough.
Check if the power cord is securely plugged in and the wall socket has power. Ensure the adjustable thermostat is set to an appropriate temperature (usually a mid-setting first). Make sure the door is closing completely and not left ajar. Avoid placing hot food directly into the fridge, and ensure it's not overpacked, which can block air circulation. Check if the fridge is located near a heat source.
Fridge is making unusual noises (e.g., loud humming, rattling).
Some noises like gurgling or clicking are normal as the refrigerant circulates or the compressor cycles. However, loud rattling may indicate the fridge is not level; adjust the leveling feet. Ensure nothing is vibrating against the back or sides of the unit, and that internal shelves or bottles are not rattling against each other. If noises persist and are unusual, contact customer support.
Water is accumulating inside the fridge or under the crisper.
This usually indicates a blocked drain hole at the back of the fridge. Locate the small drain hole (often above the crisper drawer) and gently clear it with a soft pipe cleaner or cotton swab to allow condensed water to drain properly. Also, ensure the door seals are clean and intact, as a poor seal can lead to condensation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Unpack and Position: Carefully remove all packaging materials. Position the fridge on a flat, stable surface, away from direct sunlight or heat sources like ovens or radiators. Allow adequate ventilation space around the back and sides.
- Leveling: Use the adjustable feet at the bottom to ensure the fridge is perfectly level. This prevents unnecessary vibrations and ensures the door closes properly.
- Reversible Door: If desired, you can reverse the door hinges to open from the left or right. Refer to the user manual for detailed, step-by-step instructions for this process, as it typically involves moving hinge pins and door stops.
- Initial Power-On: After positioning, plug the fridge into a dedicated power outlet. Allow it to stand for at least 4 hours before turning it on to allow refrigerants to settle. Once turned on, let it cool for a few hours before loading food.
Compatibility
- The Willow WTL55W, with its white finish and recessed handle, is designed to blend seamlessly into most modern and traditional kitchen designs.
- Its quiet operation makes it suitable for open-plan living spaces, studio apartments, or communal areas where noise levels are a concern.
- Power Requirements: Compatible with standard household electrical outlets (e.g., 220-240V, 50Hz).
Care
- Regular Cleaning: Wipe down interior surfaces, shelves, and door trays with a soft cloth dampened with warm, soapy water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or scouring pads. Dry thoroughly.
- Exterior Cleaning: Clean the exterior with a soft, damp cloth. For stubborn marks, a mild, non-abrasive household cleaner can be used.
- Defrosting: As a larder fridge, it typically features automatic defrosting for the fridge compartment, minimizing manual effort. Refer to the manual for specific defrosting cycles or if manual defrosting is ever required.
- Door Seals: Periodically check door seals for cracks or damage to ensure an airtight seal, which is crucial for efficiency.
