To adjust the temperature, locate the thermostat dial inside the fridge. Turn the dial clockwise to lower the temperature and counterclockwise to raise it. The recommended setting is typically in the middle.
Ensure that the fridge is plugged in and the thermostat is set correctly. Check if the door seals are intact and not letting warm air in. Clean the condenser coils, as dust accumulation can affect cooling efficiency.
To defrost, unplug the fridge and remove all food. Leave the door open to let the ice melt naturally. Use towels to absorb water. Do not use sharp objects to remove ice as this can damage the appliance.
The ideal temperature setting for the fridge is between 3°C and 5°C (37°F and 41°F) to keep food fresh without freezing.
Water pooling can be due to a blocked defrost drain. Check for obstructions and clear any blockages. Ensure that the fridge is level to allow proper drainage.
Condenser coils should be cleaned at least twice a year to maintain efficient operation. Use a vacuum or brush to remove dust and debris.
The fridge typically uses a 15-watt appliance bulb. Ensure the replacement bulb is of the same type and wattage.
Unplug the fridge before changing the bulb. Remove the light cover inside the fridge by unscrewing it or snapping it off. Replace the bulb and reattach the cover.
A buzzing noise could be due to the compressor or evaporator fan. Ensure the fridge is level and not touching the wall. If the noise persists, consult a technician.
Keep the fridge away from heat sources and ensure proper ventilation around it. Regularly clean the condenser coils and ensure the door seals are airtight.
