Frequently Asked Questions - EDTK5507 Edy

How to adjust the temperature of my Edy EDTK5507 freezer?

The thermostat knob is located inside the appliance. The numbers from 1 (warmest temperature) to 6 (coldest) allow you to set the temperature. For normal use, set to Med (medium position). For quick freezing, use the Max position for at least two hours before placing food inside.

Why is my freezer making noise?

Gurgling or humming sounds are normal when the compressor is running and the refrigerant is circulating. Clicking comes from the thermostat and is also normal. If the noise is unusual, check that the appliance is level, not touching the wall, and that the drip tray is correctly placed.

How to defrost the freezer compartment?

Defrosting is manual. Unplug the appliance, open the door and remove all food. Let the ice melt naturally or use a plastic scraper. Never use sharp objects to avoid damaging the compartment. Drain the water, then plug the appliance back in.

What to do if the food in the refrigerator is frozen?

Check that the thermostat is not set too low. Also ensure that the food is not touching the back wall or the cold source. Adjust the thermostat to a higher (less cold) position.

How to clean the interior of the freezer?

Before cleaning, turn off the thermostat and unplug the appliance. Use a soft sponge with a mild detergent in warm water. Avoid abrasive products, wax, bleach, or petroleum-based cleaners. Rinse and dry all surfaces thoroughly.

What to do if the appliance does not work?

First check that the power cord is properly plugged in. Ensure the thermostat is not in the Off position. Also check the fuse or circuit breaker. If the light does not come on, the bulb may be burned out or loose.

What is the recommended ambient temperature for installation?

The appliance is designed to operate in an ambient temperature between 16 °C and 32 °C. Do not install it near a heat source (stove, water heater) or in an unheated room (garage, shed).

Can I use abrasive cleaners for cleaning?

No, never use abrasive products, harsh cleaners, bleach, or flammable liquids. These products can scratch or damage the plastic and rubber surfaces. Use a soft sponge and mild detergent instead.

How to install the appliance correctly?

Place the appliance upright on a flat surface. Use the adjustable feet to level it. Leave a space of 300 mm at the rear for ventilation. Do not place it on a felted surface. If the appliance has been transported horizontally, let it stand upright for 12 hours before plugging it in.

What is the warranty period?

The appliance has a 2-year warranty against technical defects from the date of purchase, upon presentation of the invoice. The warranty does not cover damages due to misuse, incorrect installation, or non-domestic use.

Getting started

Once you have installed your appliance in an appropriate location, follow the start up procedure below:

• Leave the appliance to stand for 2 - 3 hours to allow the refrigerant to settle following installation and cleaning.
• If the appliance has been transported horizontally, it must be left to stand vertically for 12 hours before installation.

• Turn the thermostat to the required setting.
• When using the freezer for the first time or after defrosting, set the thermostat knob to the maximum position for at least 2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then adjust it to the normal position.

Temperature control

The temperature selector knob is located on the right hand side wall of the refrigerator interior. The temperature of the chamber is adjusted through the thermostat knob. The numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, do not mean a specific temperature, the lower the number is, the higher the temperature inside will be and vice versa.

During high ambient temperatures e.g. on hot summer days, it may be necessary to set the thermostat to the coolest setting (position"Max"). This may cause the compressor running continuously in order to maintain a low temperature in the cabinet.

The first time you install your refrigerator, set the thermostat knob at "Med". Give your refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. Wait 24 hours before adding food.

The thermostat knob controls the temperature. When the thermostat control knob is set to OFF, the refrigerator will not be running.

Tips for using this appliance

• Before storing cooked foods in the refrigerator, allow them to cool to room temperature. Never put hot or even warm foodstuffs into the freezer.
• To maintain adequate air circulation, do not overfill the appliance. If there is too much food inside, the compressor does not work as effectively.
• Do not open the door any more than necessary – this will keep the temperature as cold as possible inside.
• Wrap or co-ver food well before storing. Always make sure that any packaging is airtight and suitable for use inside a fridge.
• Successful freezing depends on the correct packaging. Prior to freezing the food, food should always be covered tightly with foil, plastic film, placed in plastic bags or stored in airtight containers. This will prevent food from dehydrating and to prevent any strong odors of some foods transferring to milder ones.
• All frozen food you purchase should be placed in the freezer as soon as possible to avoid them from defrosting and spoiling. All storage recommendations printed on the packaging of frozen food by the manufacturer should always be followed.
• You may hear gurgling noises or a humming sound while the appliance is in use and this is perfectly normal when the compressor is running and the coolant is moving through the system.
• A clicking sound may be heard, this is the thermostat and is normal.
• This appliance is designed to operate in an ambient temperature between 16 and 32^ .
• Do not exceed the storage times recommended by the food manufacturer and always check expiry dates.
