Manual

Refrigerator operation

Concern What to do

Appliance will not run.

It is normal for the freezer fan not to

operate during the automatic defrost cycle,

or for a short time after the appliance is

switched on.

Ensure that the cord is plugged into a live power outlet and outlet is switched on.

Ensure that the household circuit breaker has not tripped or that the fuse has not

blown.

The appliance maybe in defrost mode, check again in half an hour.

Compressor motor seems to run

too long.

At normal room temperatures, expect your

motor to run about 40% to 80% of the time.

Under warmer conditions, expect it to run

even more often.

Ensure that the doors are not held open.

Check that large amounts of warm food have not just been placed inside the

appliance.

Note that the appliance will run more than normal just after you install it or when

adjusting to temperature setting changes.

The exterior of the appliance is warm or

hot to touch.

This is normal because the appliance

transfers heat from the inside out through

the outer panels and the divider between

the doors.

Ensure the appliance has the external clearances recommended in the section

“Installing your new appliance”.

The exterior of the cabinet will be much warmer on warmer days it may even feel

hot to touch, as the appliance is working harder.

Frost build up Check that all doors are fully closed.

Ensure that the doors are not opened too often.

Ensure that the return air vents are not blocked with packaging.

Ensure the seals are clean and not obstructed.

Odours The interior may need cleaning, refer to cleaning guide.

Ensure that food is stored correctly as some food, containers and wrapping can

produce odours.

Check appliance for old or unusual food.

Lights not working

The LED lighting is designed to turn

on gradually. The LED lighting is designed

to dim automatically if the door is left

opened for more than 5 minutes and turn

off completely if the door is open for more

than 7 minutes. Closing the door will reset

the timer.

Ensure that the cord is plugged into a live power outlet and outlet is switched on.

Ensure that the household circuit breaker has not tripped or that the fuse has

not blown.

Check the appliance features section to determine lighting configuration for

your model.

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.

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.

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 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.
