The SuperCooling function rapidly lowers the temperature in the fridge compartment for a short period. It's ideal to activate before grocery shopping to quickly chill new items and protect existing food from temperature fluctuations, then it automatically switches off after approximately 6 hours.
How large is the BigBox drawer in the freezer?

Troubleshooting
Appliance is not cooling or freezing effectively.
Check if the power plug is securely inserted. Ensure the temperature settings are correct. Verify that the doors are closing completely and the seals are intact. Avoid overloading the compartments, which can restrict airflow. If ice buildup is excessive, a defrost cycle may be needed.
Unusual noise coming from the fridge freezer.
Normal operation involves some sounds (e.g., gurgling from refrigerant, clicking from thermostat). However, if noises are loud or persistent, check if the appliance is level. Ensure nothing is vibrating against the back or sides of the unit. Contact customer service if noises persist and seem abnormal.
Water accumulation inside the fridge compartment.
This often indicates a blocked drain hole at the back of the fridge. Use a small, soft brush or pipe cleaner to clear any debris. Ensure food items are not touching the back wall of the fridge, as this can cause condensation to freeze and block the drain.
