To set the temperature, use the control panel located inside the refrigerator. The recommended setting is 37°F (3°C) for the refrigerator and 0°F (-18°C) for the freezer. Adjust using the "+" or "-" buttons to reach the desired temperature.
First, check if the door is sealing properly and ensure that vents inside the refrigerator are not blocked. Clean the condenser coils located at the back of the fridge. If the problem persists, consult the user manual or contact a professional technician.
Ensure the refrigerator is not overloaded, as proper air circulation is crucial for energy efficiency. Regularly clean the condenser coils and check the door seals for any leaks. Setting the temperature to the recommended levels also helps in reducing energy usage.
Store raw meat on the bottom shelf to prevent cross-contamination. Keep dairy products near the top, where the temperature is more stable. Vegetables should be kept in the crisper drawer, while condiments can be stored in the door compartments.
The Vistra HSR160BE2 is a frost-free model, meaning it does not require manual defrosting. However, if you notice frost build-up, check the door seals and ensure the vents are not blocked.
Check if the refrigerator is level and that it is not touching any walls or cabinets. Unusual noises can also originate from items inside. Ensure nothing is vibrating or making contact with the interior walls.
Remove all food items and shelves. Use a solution of baking soda and warm water to clean the interior surfaces. Rinse with clean water and dry with a soft cloth before replacing the shelves and food items.
Store vegetables in the crisper drawer, which is designed to maintain optimal humidity. Use perforated bags to keep them fresh longer. Ensure the drawer is not overfilled to allow air circulation.
Unplug the refrigerator from the power source. Locate the light bulb cover inside the unit, unscrew it, and replace the bulb with a new one of the same wattage. Secure the cover back in place before plugging the refrigerator back in.
Inspect the door gasket for any debris or damage. Clean it with mild detergent and warm water. If the gasket is damaged, it may need to be replaced. Also, ensure the refrigerator is level and there are no obstructions in the door's path.
