RECOMANDATION IN CASE OF NO
USE OF THE APPLIANCE
Short vacation
There is no need to disconnect the appliance from
the power supply if you will be away for less than
three weeks. Use up perishable food, freeze other
food.
If your appliance has an automatic ice maker:
1.
Turn it off.
2.
Shut off the water supply to the automatic ice
maker.
3.
Empty the ice bucket.
Long vacation
Remove all the food if you are going away for three
weeks or more. If your appliance has an automatic
ice maker:
1.
Turn it off.
2.
Shut off the water supply to the automatic
icemaker at least a day before.
3.
Empty the ice bucket.
Fix some wooden or plastic wedges to the upper
part of both doors with adhesive tape and leave the
doors open enough for air to circulate inside both
compartments. This will prevent odour and mould
from setting in.
Moving
1.
Take out all internal parts.
2.
Wrap them well, and fix them together with
adhesive tape so that they do not bang together
or get lost.
3.
Screw the adjustable feet so that they do not
touch the support surface.
4.
Close and fix both doors with adhesive tape and,
again using adhesive tape, fix the power cable to
the appliance.
Power failure
In the event of a power failure, call the local office
of your electricity supply company and ask how
long it is going to last. Note: Bear in mind that a full
appliance will stay cold longer than a partially filled
one.
If ice crystals are still visible on the food, it may be
frozen again, although flavour and aroma may be
affected.
If food is found to be in a poor condition, it is best
to throw it away.
For power failures lasting up to 24 hours.
1.
Keep both doors of the appliance closed. This
will allow the stored food to stay cold as long as
possible.
For power failures lasting more than 24 hours.
1.
Empty the freezer compartment and arrange the
food in a portable freezer. If this type of freezer
is not available and, likewise, no artificial ice packs
are available, try to use up the food, which is
more easily perishable.
2.
Empty the ice bucket.

If I want my fridge-freezer to be colder, should I choose for a higher or lower setting? Verified

With most fridge-freezers a higher setting means the machine will cool harder. With a lower setting, the machine will cool less hard and the temperature in the fridge-freezer will be higher.

The drain hole in my fridge-freezer is dirty/clogged, how do I clean it? Verified

There are special cleaning devices to do this, but it is also possible to remove blockage or dirt with a cotton swab. To keep the drain hole clean and prevent smells it is advisable to put a drop of chlorine bleach in the drain 4 times a year.

How often should I defrost my freezer? Verified

For optimal use of the freezer it is best to defrost it once every 3-6 months. Ice on the inside of the freezer reduces the available space and increases the use of energy. The thawing process can be accelerated by placing hot water in the drawer or placing bowls of hot water in the freezer.

My fridge-freezer makes a bubbling sound, is that normal? Verified

Modern fridge-freezers make use of an environmentally friendly cooling agent. During the cooling process this substance turns into a gas, which can cause a bubbling and/or hissing sound. This is perfectly normal.

I bought a new fridge-freezer, can I turn it on immediately? Verified

No, the fridge-freezer needs to stand in an upright position for at least 4 hours before it can be turned on. This is because the coolant liquid needs to settle.

Is it normal that water or ice drops are forming on the back wall of my fridge-freezer? Verified

Yes, this a completely normal phenomenom. The moisture that enters the fridge-freezer with warm air or products will settle on the coldest part, being the back wall. Because the back wall can reach temperatures below freezing, the drops will freeze from time to time. When the fridge-freezer is idle the drops will thaw and flow to the drain of the fridge-freezer.

De door of my fridge-freezer will not close properly, why is that? Verified

The two most common causes are that the fridge-freezer is not level and that the door seal is damaged or has food remains on it. Make sure the fridge-freezer is level and check the door seal. Replace the seal if neccesary.

How long does it take for my refrigerator to reach the set temperature after I turn it on? Verified

This depends on the size, age and model of the refrigerator. It may take several hours to 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the set temperature. The process can be accelerated by placing non-perishable goods in the refrigerator. The temperature in the refrigerator cannot be measured properly by feeling the air inside. The best way to tell if the refrigerator has reached the set temperature is to place a glass of water in the refrigerator with a thermometer in it.

There is condensation in my refrigerator, why is that? Verified

There can be several causes. The door gasket can be defective, allowing outside air into the refrigerator. It's also possible that the refrigerator is not level, preventing the door from closing correctly. Another cause is a large difference between the temperature inside the refrigerator and outside while the door is being opened frequently.

There is mold on the rubber seals of my fridge-freezer, what should I do? Verified

The rubber seals are not actually inside the fridge-freezer and are therefore warmer. This allows bacteria to grow and mold to form. Clean the rubbers regularly to prevent this.

R-410A is a cooling agent that is used in appliances that cool up to 0°C, like refrigerators and air conditioners. It is the replacement of older cooling agents and does not damage the ozon layer.
