Häufig gestellte Fragen - EP22680BK COSTWAY

Wie stelle ich die Temperatur richtig ein?

Der Temperaturregler hat 7 Stufen (1=wärmste, 7=kälteste) plus Aus-Stellung (0). Für den normalen Gebrauch auf Stufe 4 stellen und 24 Stunden warten, bevor Sie nachjustieren.

Wie kann ich die Türanschlagseite wechseln?

Entfernen Sie die obere Scharnierabdeckung, lösen Sie die Schrauben, heben Sie die Tür ab. Drehen Sie den Türstift um und setzen Sie ihn auf der anderen Seite ein. Befestigen Sie das untere Scharnier auf der neuen Seite. Achten Sie auf korrekte Ausrichtung.

Wie tauen Sie den Gefrierbereich ab?

Entfernen Sie Lebensmittel und stellen Sie den Regler auf '0'. Stellen Sie die Auffangwanne unter den Gefrierbereich. Die Tür offen lassen; bei Bedarf eine Schale mit warmem Wasser hineinstellen. Nach dem Abtauen die Wanne leeren und das Innere reinigen.

Was tun, wenn der Kühlschrank nicht kühlt?

Prüfen Sie, ob der Regler nicht auf '0' steht, ob das Gerät eingesteckt ist und ob die Sicherung funktioniert. Bei Stromausfall nach Wiederherstellung der Spannung den Stecker wieder einstecken.

Warum läuft der Kühlschrank so häufig?

Mögliche Ursachen: häufiges Türöffnen, direkte Sonneneinstrahlung, hohe Luftfeuchtigkeit, undichte Türdichtungen. Überprüfen Sie die Ausrichtung und Dichtungen.

Wie reinige ich das Gerät?

Vor der Reinigung immer den Netzstecker ziehen. Verwenden Sie eine Mischung aus 3-4 Esslöffeln Backpulver mit warmem Wasser. Keine Scheuermittel oder Bleichmittel verwenden. Die Türdichtungen alle 3 Monate reinigen und leicht mit Vaseline einfetten.

Ist der Kühlschrank für den Einbau in einen Schrank geeignet?

Nein, das Gerät ist nur für den freistehenden Betrieb vorgesehen. Mindestabstände: Seiten 19 mm, oben und hinten 50 mm für ausreichende Belüftung.

Was bedeuten die normalen Betriebsgeräusche?

Gurgelnde oder kochende Geräusche entstehen durch das zirkulierende Kältemittel. Ein Klicken ist das Ein- und Ausschalten des Thermostats. Dies ist völlig normal.

Wie nivelliere ich den Kühlschrank?

Stellen Sie eine Wasserwaage auf die Oberseite. Die vorderen Füße sind verstellbar – drehen Sie sie, bis das Gerät waagerecht steht. Eine korrekte Nivellierung sorgt für einen sauberen Türschluss.

Was tun bei unangenehmen Gerüchen?

Reinigen Sie das Innere gründlich mit der Backpulverlösung. Achten Sie darauf, dass Lebensmittel gut verpackt sind. Überprüfen Sie, ob abgelaufene oder verdorbene Lebensmittel entfernt werden.

Installing Your Refrigerator

Unpacking Your Refrigerator

1. Remove all packaging material. This includes the foam base and all adhesive tape holding the refrigerator accessories inside and outside.

2. Inspect and remove any remains of packing, tape or printed materials before powering on the refrigerator.

Proper Air Circulation

- To assure your refrigerator works at the maximum efficiency it was designed for, you should install it in a location where there is proper air circulation, plumbing and electrical connections.

- The following are recommended clearances around the refrigerator:

Sides....3/4"(19mm)

Top 2" (50mm)

Back 2" (50mm)

Electrical Requirements

- Make sure there is a suitable power Outlet (115 volts, 15 amps outlet) with proper grounding to power the refrigerator.

- Avoid the use of three plug adapters or cutting off the third grounding in order to accommodate a two plug outlet. This is a dangerous practice since it provides no effective grounding for the refrigerator and may result in shock hazard.

Refrigerator Features And Use

General Features

Your refrigerator will automatically maintain the temperature level you select. The temperature control dial has 7 settings plus off. 1 is the warmest. 7 is the coldest. Turning the dial to 0 stops cooling in both the refrigeration and freezer sections. At first, set the dial to 4 and allow 24 hours to pass before adjusting the temperature to your needs.

(Note: If the refrigerator has been placed in a horizontal or tilted position for any period of time wait 24 hours before plugging the unit in.)

Refrigerator Interior Shelves

To remove or replace a full-width slide-out shelf: (see fig. # 2)

1. Gently tilt the shelf up and slide forward until the shelf has been completely removed.
2. To replace the shelf, gently slide the shelf back.

Defrosting Your Refrigerator (see fig. # 3)

• For maximum energy efficiency, defrost freezer section whenever frost accumulates to a thickness of 1/4" or more on freezer walls. Note that frost tends to accumulate more during the summer months.
• To defrost freezer, remove food and ice cube tray from the freezer section. Your model requires you to place the drip tray under the freezer section (see Fig. 3). To defrost turn the temperature control dial to the O position. Defrosting may take a few hours. To speed up defrost time, keep the door open and place a bowl of warm water in the refrigerator.
• During the defrost cycle, water will accumulate in the drip tray. The drip tray may also need to be emptied during the defrost process. Do not leave unattended.
  • After defrosting, empty and wipe down the drip tray, as well as the interior of the refrigerator. You may now reset your refrigerator to the desired temperature and return food.

Normal Operating Sounds You May Hear

• Boiling water, gurgling sounds or slight vibrations that are the result of the refrigerant circulating through the cooling coils.
  • The thermostat control will click when it cycles on and off.

Proper Refrigerator Care and Cleaning

Cleaning and Maintenance

Warning:

To avoid electric shock always unplug your refrigerator before cleaning. Ignoring this warning may result in death or injury.

Caution:

Before using cleaning products, always read and follow manufacturer's instructions and warnings to avoid personal injury or product damage.

General:

• Prepare a cleaning solution of 3-4 tablespoons of baking soda mixed with warm water. Use sponge or soft cloth, dampened with the cleaning solution, to wipe down your refrigerator.
• Rinse with clean warm water and dry with a soft cloth.
• Do not use harsh chemicals, abrasives, ammonia, chlorine bleach, concentrated detergents, solvents or metal scouring pads. SOME of these chemicals may dissolve, damage and/or discolor your refrigerator.

Door Gaskets:

• Clean door gaskets every three months according to general instructions. Gaskets must be kept clean and pliable to assure a proper seal.
• Petroleum jelly applied lightly on the hinge side of gaskets will keep the gasket pliable and assure a good seal.

Power Interruptions

- Occasionally there may be power interruptions due to thunderstorms or other causes. Remove the power cord from AC outlet when a power outage occurs. When power has been restored, replug power cord to AC outlet. If outage is for a prolonged period, inspect and discard spoiled or thawed food in freezer. Clean freezer before reusing.

Vacation and Moving Care

- For long vacations or absences, empty food from refrigerator, move the temperature DIAL to the "O" position and clean the door gaskets according to "General cleaning" section. Prop doors open, so air can circulate inside. When moving always move the refrigerator vertically. Do not move with the unit lying down. Possible damage to the sealed system could occur.

TroubleShooting

Refrigerator Does Not Operate

• Check if thermostat control is not in the "0" position.
• Check if refrigerator is plugged in.
• Check if there is power at the ac outlet, by checking the circuit breaker.

Food temperature appears too warm

• Frequent door openings.
- Allow time for recently added warm food to reach fresh food or freezer temperature.
- Check gaskets for proper seal.
- Adjust temperature control to colder setting.

Food temperature is too cold

- If temperature control setting is too cold, adjust to a warmer setting and allow several hours for temperature to adjust.

Refrigerator runs too frequently

• Make sure the refrigerator is not in direct contact with sunlight.
• This may be normal to maintain constant temperature during high temperature and humid days.
• Doors may have been opened frequently or for an extended period of time.
• Check gasket for proper seal.
• Check to see if doors are completely closed.

Moisture build up on interior or exterior of the refrigerator:

• This is normal during high humidity periods.
- Prolonged or frequent door openings.
- Check door gaskets for proper seal.

Refrigerator has an odor:

• Interior needs cleaning.
• Foods improperly wrapped or sealed are giving off odors.

Refrigerator door does not shut properly:

• Place a level on top of the refrigerator. If the refrigerator is not level, adjust the front leveling legs.
  • Re-align refrigerator door.
• Check for blockages e.g. food containers, crisper cover, shelves, bins etc...
