Candy CVSM 5172BK User Manual

To adjust the temperature settings, locate the control panel inside the refrigerator. Use the temperature control dial to set your desired cooling level. The recommended temperature for the fridge is between 3-5°C and for the freezer is -18°C.
First, ensure the refrigerator is plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Check the temperature settings and make sure the doors are sealing properly. Clean the condenser coils at the back of the unit to improve cooling efficiency.
The Candy CVSM 5172BK is a frost-free model, so manual defrosting is not necessary. However, if you notice ice buildup, check the door seals and ensure the refrigerator is not overloaded.
To clean the interior, first unplug the refrigerator. Remove all food items and shelves. Use a mixture of mild detergent and warm water to wipe down the surfaces. Rinse with a damp cloth and dry with a clean towel before replacing shelves and food.
Unusual noises could be due to an unsecured item inside the fridge or the refrigerator being unlevel. Check and rearrange the contents and adjust the leveling legs to stabilize the refrigerator. If the noise persists, inspect the fan and compressor for any issues.
To maximize energy efficiency, ensure the door seals are tight and free from gaps. Keep the refrigerator well-organized to allow proper air circulation. Avoid placing hot items inside and minimize door openings. Regularly clean the condenser coils and set the temperature to the recommended settings.
Water pooling can be due to a blocked defrost drain. Clear the drain hole located at the back of the refrigerator inside by using a pipe cleaner or a similar tool. Make sure the drain pan under the refrigerator is not overflowing.
To replace the light bulb, unplug the refrigerator and locate the light cover inside. Open the cover and unscrew the old bulb. Replace it with a new bulb of the same type and wattage, then secure the cover back in place.
Inspect the door seals for any damage or dirt. Clean them with a mild detergent and warm water. If they are damaged, consider replacing them. Ensure the refrigerator is level to prevent the doors from misaligning.
It is not recommended to store the refrigerator in an unheated garage, especially in extreme temperatures. The performance may be affected in very cold or hot conditions, leading to inefficient cooling or potential damage to the unit.
