To clean the condenser coils, unplug the appliance, remove the panel covering the coils, and use a vacuum with a brush attachment to gently clean away dust and debris. Ensure the coils are free of obstructions to maintain optimal performance.
Check if the thermostat is set to the correct temperature, ensure the door seals are intact, and verify that the vents are not blocked. If the issue persists, consider contacting a professional technician for further diagnosis.
It is recommended to defrost the freezer compartment whenever the frost buildup exceeds 5mm (0.2 inches) in thickness. Regular defrosting ensures efficient operation and energy savings.
Excessive noise can be caused by an uneven placement of the fridge, loose components, or items vibrating against each other inside the appliance. Ensure the fridge is level, and check for any loose parts or improperly stored items.
Unplug the fridge, remove the light cover by unscrewing it, and replace the bulb with a new one of the same type and wattage. Secure the cover back in place and plug the fridge back in.
Inspect the door seals for damage or debris. Clean any dirt from the seals and ensure they are properly aligned. Adjust the door hinges if necessary, and make sure the fridge is level to facilitate correct door alignment.
Regularly clean the interior with a mixture of baking soda and warm water, and ensure that food is properly sealed. Consider using a fridge deodorizer or an open box of baking soda to absorb odors.
Store raw meats on the lower shelves to prevent dripping, keep fruits and vegetables in designated crisper drawers, and ensure dairy products are stored in the main compartment rather than the door to maintain consistent temperature.
Check if the defrost drain is clogged, examine the door seals for any gaps, and ensure the appliance is level. If water continues to leak, inspect the water line for any damage or disconnections.
Continuous running can be caused by a faulty thermostat, inadequate ventilation, or frequent door openings. Check the thermostat settings, ensure the fridge is not overloaded, and verify that the condenser coils are clean.
