Care And Maintenance
WHAT TO DO …
When the fridge is not in use for a prolonged period:
z
Remove the plug from the outlet.
z
Remove all contents from the fridge.
z
Dry the interior and leave the door open for a few days.
When you wish to move the fridge:
z
Secure all movable parts and contents.
(Package them separately if necessary.)
z
Transport the fridge only in an upright position. In any other position you may damage the
compressor.
Before calling service, please follow the checklist below.
This may save you an expensive service call.
If the refrigerator seems too warm inside:
z
Check to see that the door is closing properly and the door seal is not damaged.
z
Check that the interior circulation is not obstructed by having too many goods stored. (The
fridge is overloaded)
z
Did you store anything hot, without first cooling it to room temperature?
z
Is there sufficient clearance around all sides and above the fridge?
If the fridge starts making any unusual noises:
z
Is it wobbling? Re-level it and check if it now operates normally.
z
Have any objects fallen behind the fridge? If so, remove them and check if operation is now
normal.
z
Are any containers inside the fridge vibrating or resonating? If so, rearrange them then check
to see if operation has returned to normal.
