How often do I need to defrost the appliance?

What is the purpose of the Flexi Fresh Area?

The Flexi Fresh Area is an adjustable temperature drawer designed to store specific food types like meats, fish, or vegetables at their optimal temperature, extending their freshness.

How does Circle Fresh technology work?

Circle Fresh technology uses lateral airflow to maintain consistent temperature and humidity, preventing food from drying out and preserving its natural taste, juiciness, and texture.

Troubleshooting

Appliance not cooling or freezing

Check if the power cord is securely plugged in. Ensure the thermostat is set to the correct temperature. Verify that the doors are closing properly and the seals are intact. Make sure there is adequate ventilation around the appliance and that the condenser coils are clean.

Water dispenser not working

Ensure the water tank is correctly inserted and filled with water. Check if the dispenser lever or button is functioning correctly. Verify that the appliance has been running long enough for the water to chill.

Unusual noises

Some operational noises like humming or clicking are normal. If the noise is excessively loud or concerning, check if the appliance is level on the floor. Ensure it is not touching any walls or cabinets.

Frost forming in the freezer

Although it features Total No Frost, ensure the doors are not left ajar and are sealing correctly. Avoid placing large amounts of warm food into the freezer at once. If frost is excessive, a manual defrost may be required, consult the user manual.

Interior light not working

The light bulb may need replacing. Turn off the appliance and unplug it before attempting to replace the bulb as per the instructions in the user manual.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Total No Frost technology reduces maintenance by eliminating manual defrosting.
  • Convenient non-plumbed water dispenser offers chilled water without installation hassle.
  • Flexible storage options with adjustable shelves and a dedicated temperature-controlled drawer.
  • Advanced airflow technologies (Circle Fresh) help maintain food freshness and flavor.

Cons

  • The freezer compartment has a 9-hour power failure storage time, which may be insufficient for some.
