Loud noises.
■ The refrigerator enclosure may emit heat during operation, especially in summer. This is
caused by the condenser, and it is a normal phenomenon.
■ Condensation phenomenon will be detected on the exterior surface and door seals of the
freezer when the ambient humidity is large. This is normal. Wipe off condensation with a dry
towel.

9. TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING

■ Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is wet and hot. Once you open
the door, close it as soon as possible.
■ Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation
behind the appliance).
■ In normal climatic conditions, arrange the thermostat at the middle setting.
■ Before loading the appliance with packages of fresh food, make sure they are cooled to
ambient temperature.
■ Ice and frost layer increases energy consumption, so clean the appliance as soon as the layer
is 3 to 5 mm thick.
■ Keep the rear of the appliance free from dust.
■ The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing
appliances or heating ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
■ Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the
appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality,
or spoil.
■ Wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts
down on frost build-up inside the appliance.
■ Do not line the appliance's storage bin with aluminium foil, wax paper, or paper towelling.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the appliance less efficient.
Solution
■ Check whether the appliance is plugged in and connected to
power.
■ Low voltage.
■ Failure power or tripping circuit.
■ Odorous foods should closely wrapped.
■ Check whether foods are rotten.
■ Check whether the interior shall be cleaned.
■ The appliance operates for longer time in summer when the
ambient temperature is higher.
■ Do not put too much food in the appliance at one time.
■ Do not put foods until they are cooled.
■ Frequent opening of refrigerator door.
■ Check whether the refrigerator is connected to power.
■ Check whether the illuminating light is damaged.
■ The freezer door is stuck by food packages.
■ Too much food inside the appliance.
■ Tilt the refrigerator by a few degrees.
■ Check whether the food is levelled and whether the appliance is
balanced.
■ Check whether the refrigerator accessories are properly inserted.
