To change the temperature settings, locate the control panel inside the refrigerator. Use the up and down arrows to adjust the temperature as desired. The ideal setting for the fridge compartment is around 3°C, and for the freezer, it should be set to -18°C.
First, check if the refrigerator is plugged in and the power is on. Ensure that the temperature settings are correct. Clean the condenser coils located at the back of the refrigerator. If the issue persists, consider contacting a professional technician.
The Sandstrom S4SSFF12 is equipped with a frost-free system, so manual defrosting is generally not required. However, if you notice frost build-up, it may be due to a malfunction, and you should consult the user manual or seek professional assistance.
To clean the refrigerator, unplug it first. Use a mixture of mild detergent and water to wipe down the interior surfaces. Avoid using abrasive cleaners. Rinse with a clean cloth and water, then dry. Clean the exterior with a damp cloth.
To prevent food odors, store food in airtight containers. Regularly check for expired items and remove them. Placing an open box of baking soda inside can also help absorb odors.
Unusual noises may be due to the refrigerator not being level. Adjust the leveling legs if needed. Noises can also occur if the refrigerator is overfilled, causing items to vibrate. Ensure the appliance is not in contact with walls or cabinets.
To replace the light bulb, first unplug the refrigerator. Locate the light cover inside the fridge, usually secured with a screw or clip. Remove the cover and replace the bulb with a new one of the same type and wattage. Reattach the cover and plug the fridge back in.
Inspect the door gasket for any debris or damage. Clean it with warm soapy water and wipe dry. If the gasket is damaged or worn, it may need replacing. Ensure the refrigerator is level, as this can affect the door seal.
To increase energy efficiency, ensure the refrigerator is placed away from heat sources like ovens or direct sunlight. Keep the gasket clean to ensure a good seal. Avoid placing hot food inside and ensure the vents are not blocked by food items.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the condenser coils, checking the door seals for integrity, and ensuring the temperature settings are correct. Also, periodically clean the interior and exterior surfaces and replace any worn-out components, like light bulbs or gaskets.
