FAQs

How do I reverse the door?

Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions on reversing the door. It usually involves removing hinges, switching them to the opposite side, and changing the handles.

How often should I defrost the freezer?

Thanks to Low Frost technology, you won't need to defrost it as often. However, it's best to defrost it when ice build-up is more than 1/4 inch thick. Refer to the manual for specific instructions.

What should I do if the fridge freezer isn't cooling properly?

Check the power supply, the thermostat settings, and ensure the vents aren't blocked. If the problem persists, contact customer support.

How do I clean the fridge freezer?

Unplug the appliance and remove all food. Clean the interior with a solution of baking soda and water, or a mild detergent. Wipe down the shelves, drawers, and door seals with a damp cloth.

What is the warranty period?

Warranty information is not available in the product data, please refer to the product documentation or contact the retailer.

Can I store hot food in the fridge freezer?

No, let hot food cool down to room temperature before placing it in the fridge freezer to avoid raising the internal temperature and affecting other food items.

How can I improve energy efficiency?

Avoid frequent door openings, ensure the door seals are tight, and allow hot food to cool down before placing it in the fridge. Also, avoid overfilling the fridge and freezer to allow for proper air circulation.

Troubleshooting
