Troubleshooting
The fridge freezer is not cooling.
First, check if the appliance is plugged in correctly and the power outlet is working. Ensure the thermostat is set to an appropriate temperature. Check that the door is closing completely and seals are intact. Also, ensure there is adequate ventilation around the unit.
Excessive ice build-up in the freezer compartment.
This is common in non-frost-free models. Regularly defrost the freezer compartment as per the user manual. Check the door seal for any gaps that might be letting in warm air, and avoid leaving the freezer door open for extended periods.
The appliance is making unusual noises.
Ensure the fridge freezer is level using the adjustable feet, as an uneven surface can cause vibrations. Check if any items inside are rattling against each other or the walls. Also, ensure there is enough clearance around the unit, as objects touching the sides or back can cause noise.
The door is difficult to open or close.
After closing the door, a vacuum can sometimes form, making it temporarily harder to reopen. Wait a few moments. If the issue persists, check the door seals for stickiness or damage. Lubricating the hinge with food-grade silicone spray can also help.
