To adjust the temperature, locate the thermostat dial inside the fridge. Turn the dial clockwise to lower the temperature or counterclockwise to raise it. Allow 24 hours for the settings to stabilize.
Check the thermostat settings to ensure they are correct. Make sure the vents inside the fridge are not blocked by food items. Clean the condenser coils and ensure the door seals are intact.
It is recommended to clean the condenser coils every 6 to 12 months to ensure optimal performance and efficiency of the fridge.
To defrost, turn off the fridge and remove all contents. Leave the door open and place towels around the base to catch melting ice. Clean and dry all surfaces before turning the fridge back on.
Unusual noises may be due to the fridge being uneven on the floor. Ensure it is level. Also, check that no items inside the fridge are vibrating against each other.
Ensure the door seals are tight and replace if necessary. Keep the fridge full but not overcrowded to maintain efficient cooling. Avoid placing hot foods inside immediately.
First, check the bulb to see if it needs replacing. If the bulb is fine, check the door switch to ensure it is not stuck and is functioning properly.
To change the door swing direction, refer to the user manual for step-by-step instructions. It involves removing the door, hinges, and reattaching them on the opposite side.
Regularly clean the interior and exterior surfaces, check door seals monthly, and clean condenser coils every 6-12 months. Defrost the freezer as needed to prevent ice build-up.
After a power outage, unplug the fridge for 5 minutes to reset it. Plug it back in and check the temperature settings to ensure they are correct.
