To set the temperature, use the control panel located inside the freezer. Turn the dial to the desired setting, typically between -18°C and -20°C for optimal freezing.
Check if the door is fully closed and the seal is intact. Ensure that the vents inside are not blocked by food items. If the problem persists, consider defrosting the freezer if there's an ice buildup.
Manual defrosting is recommended when the ice build-up reaches about 1/4 inch thickness. However, regular checks every 3-6 months are advisable to maintain efficiency.
Unplug the freezer and remove all food items. Use a mixture of baking soda and water to wipe down the interior surfaces. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or sharp objects.
Ensure the freezer is level and on a stable surface. Check that items inside are not vibrating against the walls. If the noise continues, inspect the condenser fan and motor for obstructions.
This could be due to a blocked defrost drain. Clear it by using a mix of warm water and mild detergent. Ensure there's no obstruction in the drainage path.
Keep the freezer full to reduce energy consumption, but do not overcrowd it. Regularly check and clean the condenser coils, and ensure the door seal is tight and intact.
Check the bulb and replace it if necessary. Ensure that the bulb is screwed in tightly. If the issue persists, inspect the light switch for any defects.
Keep food items in airtight containers. Regularly clean the interior with a baking soda solution, and consider placing an open box of baking soda inside to absorb odors.
Yes, it is normal for the exterior to feel warm as the heat exchange process occurs. However, if it feels excessively hot, check the ventilation space and ensure the condenser coils are clean.
