To adjust the temperature, locate the control panel inside the refrigerator. Use the up and down arrows to set the desired temperature for both the refrigerator and freezer sections.
First, check if the vents inside the refrigerator are blocked by food items. Ensure the doors are closing properly and the seals are clean and intact. If problems persist, consider cleaning the condenser coils and verifying the settings on the control panel.
It is recommended to clean the condenser coils every six months to ensure optimal performance and efficiency.
To defrost the freezer, unplug the refrigerator and remove all items. Leave the freezer door open to allow the ice to melt naturally. Place towels on the floor to absorb any water. Once defrosted, clean and dry the interior before plugging the refrigerator back in.
To replace the water filter, locate it inside the refrigerator compartment. Twist the old filter counterclockwise to remove it. Insert the new filter and twist it clockwise until it is securely in place. Run water through the new filter for a few minutes to clear any air or debris.
Water leakage can be caused by a clogged defrost drain, poor door seals, or a faulty water filter. Check these components and clean or replace as necessary.
Ensure the ice maker is turned on and the water supply line is connected. Check for any ice blockages in the ice maker mechanism. If the issue persists, consult the user manual or contact a service technician.
Keep the refrigerator and freezer doors closed as much as possible, ensure the door seals are clean and intact, and keep the condenser coils clean. Adjust the temperature settings to the recommended levels to avoid overworking the appliance.
Store raw meats on the lower shelves to prevent cross-contamination. Keep fruits and vegetables in the designated crisper drawers. Use airtight containers to store leftovers and reduce odor transfer.
To reset the control panel, unplug the refrigerator for about 5 minutes. Plug it back in, and the panel should reset. If issues persist, refer to the troubleshooting section in the user manual.
