Frequently Asked Questions - JRG90882 Juno Electrolux

How do I adjust the temperature on my Juno Electrolux JRG90882 refrigerator?

Turn the Temperature regulator clockwise for colder, counterclockwise for warmer. The 'O' position turns the appliance off. A medium setting is usually suitable.

How should I clean the refrigerator?

Unplug the appliance first. Use lukewarm water and a mild neutral soap. Do not use abrasive powders or strong detergents. Clean the condenser at the back with a brush to improve performance.

What should I do if the refrigerator is not cooling?

Check if the appliance is switched on and the plug is connected. Ensure the temperature setting is not too low. Verify that the door closes properly and that there is enough air circulation around the appliance. If the problem persists, consult a qualified electrician.

Why is water collecting inside the refrigerator?

The defrost water drain may be clogged. Clean the drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment using the special cleaner provided. Also ensure that food items do not block the water flow.

How do I replace the interior lamp?

Disconnect the appliance. Remove the lamp cover by pushing the movable part (1) and then taking off the cover (2). Replace the bulb with one of the same power, specifically designed for household appliances. Reinstall the cover and reconnect.

Why is the compressor running continuously?

This may occur if the temperature is set too low, the door is opened frequently, the room temperature is high, or if the appliance is fully loaded with warm food. Try setting a higher temperature and ensuring proper door sealing.

How can I adjust the door shelves?

Gradually pull the shelf in the direction of the arrows until it comes free, then reposition at the desired height. This allows storage of packages of various sizes.

What is the climate class and why is it important?

The climate class indicates the range of ambient temperatures in which the appliance operates optimally. For example, SN: +10 to +32°C, N: +16 to +32°C, ST: +16 to +38°C, T: +16 to +43°C. Placing the appliance outside this range may affect performance.

Does the refrigerator defrost automatically?

Yes, the refrigerator compartment defrosts automatically. Frost on the rear plate melts during compressor off cycles and the water drains to a tray above the compressor where it evaporates. Periodic cleaning of the drain hole is recommended.

How can I save energy with my refrigerator?

Avoid opening the door frequently and leave it open as little as possible. Set the temperature to a medium setting. Ensure good air circulation around the appliance and clean the condenser regularly. Do not store warm food directly.

Insert the plug into the wall socket.

Turn the Temperature setting regulator clockwise to a medium setting.

SWITCHING OFF

To turn off the appliance, turn the Temperature regulator to the "O" position.

TEMPERATURE REGULATION

The temperature is automatically regulated. To operate the appliance, proceed as follows:

• turn the Temperature regulator toward lower settings to obtain the minimum coldness.
• turn the Temperature regulator toward higher settings to obtain the maximum coldness.

FIRST USE

CLEANING THE INTERIOR

Before using the appliance for the first time, wash the interior and all internal accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap so as to remove the typical smell of a brand-new product, then dry thoroughly.

i A medium setting is generally the most suitable.

However, the exact setting should be chosen keeping in mind that the temperature inside the appliance depends on:

• room temperature
  • how often the door is opened
  • the quantity of food stored
• the location of the appliance.

Important! If the ambient temperature is high or the appliance is fully loaded, and the appliance is set to the lowest temperatures, it may run continuously causing frost to form on the rear wall. In this case the dial must be set to a higher temperature to allow automatic defrosting and therefore reduced energy consumption.

Important! Do not use detergents or abrasive powders, as these will damage the finish.

DAILY USE

MOVABLE SHELVES

The walls of the refrigerator are equipped with a series of runners so that the shelves can be positioned as desired. For better use of space, the front half-shelves can lie over the rear ones.

Important! Do not move the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer and the bottle shelf to ensure correct air circulation.

HUMIDITY CONTROL

The glass shelf incorporates a device with slits (adjustable by means of a sliding lever), which makes it possible to regulate the temperature in the vegetable drawer(s).

When the ventilation slots are closed: the natural moisture content of the food in the fruit and vegetable compartments is preserved for longer.

When the ventilation slots are opened: more air circulation results in a lower air moisture content in the fruit and vegetable compartments.

HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

• You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling sound when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or tubing. This is correct.
• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped around and you will hear a whirring sound and a pulsating noise from the compressor. This is correct.
• The thermic dilatation might cause a sudden cracking noise. It is natural, not dangerous physical phenomenon. This is correct.
• When the compressor switches on or switches off, you will hear a faint "click" of the temperature regulator. This is correct.

HINTS FOR ENERGY SAVING

• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the Temperature Regulator is set to low temperature and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If this happens, set the Temperature Regulator toward warmer settings to allow automatic defrosting and so a saving in electricity consumption.

HINTS FOR FRESH FOOD REFRIGERATION

To obtain the best performance:

CARE AND CLEANING

Caution! Unplug the appliance before carrying out any maintenance operation.

This appliance contains hydrocarbons in its cooling unit; maintenance and re-charging must therefore only be carried out by authorized technicians.

PERIODIC CLEANING

The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:

• clean the inside and accessories with lukewarm water and some neutral soap.

• regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure they are clean and free from debris.

• do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the refrigerator

• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate freely around it

HINTS FOR REFRIGERATION

Useful hints:

Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.

For safety, store in this way only one or two days at the most.

Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc.: these should be covered and may be placed on any shelf.

Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned and placed in the special drawer(s) provided.

Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.

Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should be stored in the bottle rack on the door.

Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must not be kept in the refrigerator.

- rinse and dry thoroughly.

Important! Do not pull, move or damage any pipes and/or cables inside the cabinet. Never use detergents, abrasive powders, highly perfumed cleaning products or wax polishes to clean the interior as this will damage the surface and leave a strong odour.

Clean the condenser (black grill) and the compressor at the back of the appliance with a brush. This operation will improve the performance of the appliance and save electricity consumption.

Important! Take care of not to damage the cooling system.

Many proprietary kitchen surface cleaners contain chemicals that can attack/damage the plastics used in this appliance. For this reason it is recommended that the outer casing of this appliance is only cleaned with warm water with a little washing-up liquid added.

After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains supply.

DEFROSTING OF THE REFRIGERATOR

Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor compressor stops, during normal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates. It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment channel to prevent the water overflowing and dripping on-to the food inside. Use the special cleaner provided, which you will find already inserted into the drain hole.
