To adjust the temperature settings, locate the control panel inside the refrigerator compartment. Use the temperature control dial to set your desired temperature. The recommended setting for optimal performance is usually in the mid-range.
Unusual noises may be caused by the refrigerator being uneven on the floor, the compressor cycling on and off, or items inside vibrating. Ensure the refrigerator is level, check that items inside are not touching the walls, and that the drip tray is properly seated.
Check if the door is sealing properly and not being left open. Ensure the vents inside the fridge are not blocked by items. Also, verify that the temperature setting is correctly adjusted and the condenser coils are clean.
It is recommended to clean the condenser coils every 6-12 months to ensure efficient operation. Disconnect the power and use a vacuum or coil brush to remove dust and debris.
To prevent ice buildup, make sure the freezer door is completely sealed and not frequently opened. Avoid overloading the freezer and ensure that the defrost drain is not blocked.
To manually defrost, remove all food from the refrigerator, unplug it, and leave the doors open. Place towels around the base to capture melting water. Once defrosted, clean the interior and restart the refrigerator.
This may be due to misalignment, damaged seals, or obstructions. Check the door seals for damage, ensure nothing is blocking the door, and adjust the leveling feet to ensure the refrigerator is stable and level.
To replace the light bulb, first disconnect the refrigerator from power. Locate the light cover inside the refrigerator and remove it. Unscrew the old bulb and replace it with a new one with the same specifications. Reattach the light cover and reconnect power.
Water pooling may be due to a blocked defrost drain. Check and clear any obstructions in the defrost drain located at the back of the refrigerator. Additionally, ensure that the drip tray is not full or misaligned.
To increase energy efficiency, ensure the refrigerator is not placed near heat sources, maintain a clean and dust-free environment around the condenser coils, minimize door openings, and regularly check door seals for any leaks.
