CHAPTER -6: TROUBLESHOOTING
If your fridge freezer is not operating as expected, there may be a simple solution.
If your refrigerator is not working.
Check that ;
• Is there a power failure?

• Is there any failure at the socket? To check this, plug your refrigerator into a known working socket.

• You have not overloaded the appliance ,
• The doors are closed perfectly ,
• There is no dust on the condenser ,
• There is enough space at the rear and side walls.
Your fridge freezer is too noisy.

compressor is not running. Do not worry this is quite normal. If these sounds are different check that ;
The appliance is well levelled ,

Recommendations
• In instances of a power cut unplug the appliance. This prevents damage to the compressor. You should delay
plugging in 5 – 10 minutes after you regain power supply. This will avoid damage to components.
• The cooling unit of your refrigerator is hidden in the rear wall. Therefore, water droplets or ice may occur on the
rear surface of your fridge due to the operation of the compressor in specified intervals. This is normal. There
is no need to perform a defrosting operation unless the ice is excessive.
• If you will not use your fridge for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) unplug it. Clean your fridge according to
Part 4 and leave the door open to prevent humidity and smell.
• The appliance you have purchased is designed for home type use and can be used only at home and for

CHAPTER -7: TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY
1. Always allow foodstuffs to cool before storing in the appliance.
2. Thaw food in the fridge compartment, this helps save energy.
3. Energy consumption is declared with maximum load and using only bottom freezer drawer and bottom glass shelf.
CHAPTER -4: FOOD STORAGE GUIDANCE
• The taste of some spices found in cooked dishes (anise, basilica, watercress, vinegar, assorted spices, ginger,
garlic, onion, mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, etc.) changes and they assume a strong taste when they
are stored for a long period. Therefore, only add a small amount of spice if planning to freeze, or the desired
spice should be added after the food has been thawed.
• The storage period of food is dependent on the oil used. The suitable oils are margarine, calf fat, olive oil and
butter and the unsuitable oils are peanut oil and pig fat.
• The food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups and the other food should be frozen in plastic folios or
bags.
