Frequently Asked Questions - SSM 1351 IF BLOMBERG

What should I do if the refrigerator does not operate?

First, check if the plug is securely inserted into the socket and that the fuse has not blown. Ensure the socket is powered. If the compressor doesn't start, wait 6 minutes as the protective thermic may need to reset after a power failure.

How do I adjust the temperature?

Use the thermostat knob inside the fridge. Settings range from 1 (warmest) to 5 (coldest). The average desired temperature is around +5°C. Turn to '0' to stop cooling.

Why is there condensation on the inner walls?

Condensation can occur if the room is very cold, the door is opened frequently, or food with liquid is stored uncovered. Also check if the door is fully closed. Set the thermostat to a suitable level.

How do I defrost the refrigerator?

The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. Water drains through a channel to a container at the back. During defrost, water droplets may form; wipe them with a warm cloth. Never use sharp objects.

Can I reverse the door opening direction?

Yes, the door is reversible. Follow the instructions in the manual (section 'Reversing the doors') which involve removing door parts and hinges. It requires some DIY skill.

How do I clean the refrigerator?

Unplug the appliance. Use lukewarm water mixed with a teaspoon of bicarbonate of soda per pint to clean the interior. Wipe dry. Do not use abrasive cleaners, gasoline, or chlorine-based products.

What should I do if the interior light does not work?

Switch off and unplug. Remove the light diffuser cover, check if the bulb needs tightening. If still not working, replace with a standard E14 15W max bulb. Reassemble the cover securely.

Why is my refrigerator making unusual noises?

Noises like liquid flowing or compressor hum are normal. If excessive, ensure the fridge is level on a stable floor, and that items on top are not vibrating. Adjust the front feet if needed.

How can I save energy with this refrigerator?

Avoid leaving doors open for long. Do not put hot food inside. Allow air circulation by not overloading. Place the fridge away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Thaw frozen food in the fridge compartment.
