Frequently Asked Questions - AFF001 Airflo

How do I set the temperature on my Airflo AFF001 fridge?

Use the thermostat dial inside the fridge compartment. Turn it clockwise for colder temperatures and counterclockwise for warmer. The recommended setting is medium.

Why is my refrigerator not cooling properly?

Check if the door is fully closed, the vents are not blocked, and the condenser coils are clean. Also ensure the temperature setting is correct.

How often should I defrost the freezer?

Defrost when ice builds up to about 5 mm thickness. For the AFF001, manual defrosting is required; turn off the appliance and let ice melt naturally.

What is the best way to clean the interior?

Unplug the fridge and remove all food. Use a mild detergent with warm water, then rinse and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Why is there water pooling inside the refrigerator?

This could be due to a blocked defrost drain. Clean the drain hole with a pipe cleaner or warm water to clear any debris.

How do I change the light bulb?

Unplug the fridge, remove the light cover, and replace the bulb with a compatible LED or incandescent bulb (check manual for type). Reattach the cover.

Why is my refrigerator making loud noises?

Normal sounds include compressor humming and refrigerant gurgling. If you hear clicking or rattling, check if the fridge is level or if objects are vibrating against it.

Can I adjust the door shelves?

Yes, the door bins can be repositioned by lifting them up and out. Place them at different heights to accommodate various bottle sizes.

What should I do if the door seal is loose?

Clean the gasket with soapy water. If it remains loose, you may need to replace it. Contact Airflo support for a replacement part.

How long is the warranty for the Airflo AFF001?

The standard warranty is 2 years for parts and labor. For extended warranties, check with your retailer or Airflo customer service.

IMPORTANT: Allow the refrigerator to stand upright for 24 hours before plugging it in.

OPERATION

• Place the shelves firmly on their supports. Check that the refrigerator is functioning properly before installing and filling it. An optional light switch is inside the unit.
• Never put warm or hot food directly into the Bar Cooler.

There are several types of controller/thermostat for different models. Please check which type of controller is on your unit.

ELECTRONIC THERMOSTAT

• During normal operation, the controller display will
  show the temperature inside the refrigerator.

• A small indicator light
  will illuminate under the "Cooling" symbol to confirm the fridge is in its normal cooling mode and compressor is running.

- When temperature is reached and the compressor is in its "Off" cycle, no indicator light will illuminate in the controller:

To set the desired temperature of the fridge:

- Press the SET button once. A "beep" will sound and the display will start to flash.

- Use the 🔊️ buttons to set to the desired temperature.

- Press SET again to complete the operation, or just leave it for 5-10 seconds and the display will revert back to showing internal temperature while new settings is saved.

Note: The fridge is built to automatically defrost and prevent any ice forming on the evaporator. When in a "Defrost" cycle, the indicator light will illuminate

under the "Defrost" symbol:

To manually activate "Defrost" cycle:

- Press the

button and hold it for 6 seconds until a "beep" can be heard.

- The indicator light will now illuminate under the “Defrost” symbol and the fridge is into a “Defrost” cycle.

- “Defrost” will run for 20 minutes and then automatically revert to normal operation.

To manually change back to normal operating mode from the "Defrost" mode:

- Press the heard.

button again. Hold the button for 6 seconds until a “beep” is

- Both indicator lights under the “Defrost” symbol and under the “Cooling” symbol will now flash while the fridge is gearing up to switch back to normal operation.

- After 5-20 minutes, only the indicator light will illuminate under the “Cooling” symbol to confirm the fridge is back in its normal cooling mode.

MECHANICAL THERMOSTAT

Thermostat settings

- Thermostat “Off” position indicates the Bar Cooler is switched off although power is still supplied. By turning the thermostat dial clockwise, the Bar Cooler will switch on automatically. The settings MIN-MAX will regulate the interior temperature of the Bar Cooler.

Setting Off = Not operating

Setting MIN = Lowest setting

(warmest internal temperature)

Setting MAX = Highest setting

(coldest internal temperature)

- Adjust the internal temperature as required according to the amount of product and the ambient temperature.

- The internal temperature varies in different parts of the Bar Cooler. The back of the Bar Cooler is coldest.

IMPORTANT

- The fridge will go through a normal periodical defrosting cycle and a manual defrosting operation is only required in most extreme cases. It is better to avoid if not necessary.

- While in the “Defrost” mode, the fridge cooling power is reduced as the compressor is not working. The automatic cycles ensure the defrosting is done in the most efficient manner and when required. It is not recommended to leave the fridge in the manually set Defrost mode for prolonged periods of time though.

- Note that it is not recommended to operate the fridge on settings that run below 4°C/ MAX as such setting will cause content at the rear of the fridge (closest to the evaporator) to freeze. It will also result in unnecessary strain on the cooling system and undue high energy consumption.

- In normal operation, the controller turns the compressor off at the set temperature and back on after the temperature rise by around 5^ . As such, the reading in the electronic controller is almost always a few degrees above set-point, which is perfectly okay.

DEFROSTING / MAINTENANCE

- Ice may build up on the evaporator if the unit is put to work constantly for a period of time. When ice begins to build up to approximately 10mm or 1/5 inch thick, defrost is required.

- Empty the cabinet, switch the thermostat to "Off" position. The ice will start to melt.

- When the ice has melted and drained away, dry off any residual moisture with a soft cloth.

- Switch the power on again via the thermostat.

- Note that it may take around 12 hours for the cabinet to get back down to the previous temperature set.

CLEANING

- Unplug your Bar Cooler and remove any items inside (preferably to a suitable back-up refrigerator).

- Wash the inner compartment with warm water and neutral detergent.

• Do not allow the control panel, cables or plug to get wet.
• Never use corrosive detergents, wire brushes or abrasive scourers to clean your Bar Cooler. Also, never use metal or sharp implements to remove debris / dirt.
• Dry all surface thoroughly.
• To ensure a trouble-free operation, the condenser should be cleaned every three months, where appropriate, using a vacuum hose. The condenser is located behind the lower grill of the cabinet. In exceptionally dusty locations, the condenser should be cleaned often.
• Use mild, soapy water to clean the gasket and seals.

REPLACING LAMPS

• Unplug the power plug.
• Remove the screws on both end of the light cover. Take down the lamp cover, pull out the wires and then take out the lamp.
• Install the new lamp, connect the wires, place the lamp cover and fasten.

DISPOSAL OF PACKAGING

• Do not allow children to play with the packaging. Destroy plastic bags safely.
• The cardboard may be broken or cut into smaller pieces and given to a waste paper disposal service. The wrapping foil is made of polyethylene. The polyethylene pads and stuffing contain no fluorochloric hydrocarbons.
• All these packaging materials may be taken to a waste collecting depot and used again after adequate recycling.
