To change the temperature settings, locate the temperature control panel inside the fridge. Adjust the dial or use the digital controls to set the desired temperature for the fridge and freezer compartments.
Ensure that the vents inside the fridge are not blocked, check the door seals for any damage, and make sure the temperature settings are correct. If the problem persists, consider defrosting the unit or contacting a service technician.
To defrost, unplug the appliance, remove all food items, and leave the doors open. Place towels around the base to catch melting ice. Once defrosted, clean the interior with a mild detergent, dry thoroughly, and reconnect the power.
Water pooling can be due to a blocked defrost drain. Check and clear the drain hole at the back of the fridge. If the problem continues, ensure that food items are not blocking the airflow.
Condenser coils should be cleaned every 6 to 12 months. This helps maintain efficiency and prolong the appliance's lifespan. Unplug the fridge and use a vacuum or a brush to remove dust and debris from the coils.
Unusual noises may indicate the appliance is not level, the condenser fan is obstructed, or the compressor is malfunctioning. Ensure the fridge is on a level surface and check for obstructions. Persistent noise may require professional inspection.
Unplug the fridge, locate the light cover inside the compartment, and remove it. Replace the old bulb with a new one of the same type and wattage, then reattach the cover and plug the fridge back in.
Check for food debris or damage on the door seals. Clean the seals with warm soapy water and dry them. If the seals are damaged, they may need to be replaced to ensure proper sealing.
After a power outage, the fridge should automatically resume normal operation. If it doesn't, unplug the appliance for a few minutes, then plug it back in to reset the system.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the interior and exterior surfaces, checking and cleaning door seals, defrosting if necessary, and cleaning condenser coils. Regularly check temperature settings and ensure proper airflow inside the compartments.
