Frequently Asked Questions - CF-33-100-B VESTEL

What should I do before using the refrigerator for the first time?
Before first use, clean all parts with warm water and a teaspoon of sodium bicarbonate, rinse, and dry. Ensure the appliance is level using the adjustable front legs. Install the two plastic distance guides at the rear by turning them 90° to keep the condenser at least 75 mm from the wall. Allow the fridge to run for 24 hours before adding food.
How do I set the thermostat correctly?
The thermostat automatically regulates temperature. Turn the knob to higher numbers (1 to 5) for cooler temperatures. For short-term storage, use a low/medium setting (up to 3). For long-term storage, use a medium setting (3 or 4). Avoid setting beyond position 1 as it stops the appliance. The coldest area is below the ice-making compartment.
What is the difference between Summer Mode and Winter Mode?
Summer Mode (Mode 1) makes the bottom compartment cooler. Winter Mode (Mode 2) keeps the bottom compartment less cool and is recommended during defrosting. Adjust the drain tray flap to switch modes according to ambient temperature.
How often should I defrost the refrigerator?
Defrost the ice-making compartment at least twice a year or when ice exceeds 7 mm thickness. To defrost, activate Winter mode, set thermostat to '5' the day before, switch off the appliance, leave the door open, and place bowls of warm water to speed up the process. Dry thoroughly and reset to previous mode.
How do I clean the refrigerator?
Disconnect the power before cleaning. Do not pour water on the appliance. Use a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water. Clean accessories separately by hand with soap and water. Do not use abrasive products or detergents. Clean the condenser with a brush at least twice a year to save energy.
Why is my refrigerator making noise?
Normal noises include cracking (ice cracking during defrosting), clicking (thermostat switching compressor), motor hum (compressor running), bubbling (refrigerant flow), and water flowing (defrost water). Ensure the appliance is level and nothing is touching the rear. If unusual noise persists, check for vibrations or contact service.
What should I do if the refrigerator is not cooling properly?
Check that the mains is connected, thermostat is not on '•' position, and the socket works. Ensure doors close properly, condenser is dust-free, and there is enough space around the appliance. Avoid overloading and opening doors frequently. If problem persists, call an authorized service center.
How can I save energy with my refrigerator?
Install the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated room away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Let warm food cool before storing. Cover drinks and liquids. Avoid leaving the door open for long periods. Keep gaskets clean and pliable. Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator compartment to help cool it.
How do I replace the light bulb?
Unplug the appliance. Remove the screw on the light cover, press the hooks, and pull off the cover. Turn the old bulb counterclockwise and replace with a new one of max 15 W. Reassemble in reverse order. For LED lighting, contact authorized personnel only.
Is it safe for children to use this refrigerator?
Children aged 8+ can use the appliance with supervision. Children 3-8 can load/unload but not clean or maintain. Very young children (0-3) should not use it. Always supervise children and ensure they do not play with the appliance or hang on the door.

7 BEFORECALLINGAFTER- SALES SERVICE

If your refrigerator is not working properly, there may be a minor problem. Check the following.

The appliance does not operate

Check if:

  • There is power
    • The mains is connected
  • The thermostat setting is on the “•” position
  • The socket is defective. To check this, plug another working appliance into the same socket.

The appliance performs poorly

Check if:

• The appliance is overloaded
• The doors are closed properly
• There is any dust on the condenser
- There is enough space near the rear and side walls.

The appliance is noisy

The cooling gas which circulates in the refrigerator circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling sound) even when the compressor is not running. Do not worry, this is normal. If you hear a different sound, check whether: • The appliance is level • Anything is touching the rear of the appliance • Objects in the appliance are vibrating.

Your refrigerator is operating noisily

The following noises can be heard during normal operation of the appliance.

Cracking (ice cracking) noise occurs:

• During automatic defrosting.
- When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).

Clicking noise occurs: When the thermostat switches the compressor on/off.

Motor noise: Indicates the compressor is operating normally. The compressor

may cause more noise for a short time when it is first activated.

Bubbling noise and splashing occurs: Due to the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system.

Water flowing noise occurs: Due to water flowing to the evaporation container. This noise is normal during defrosting.

There is water in the lower part of the refrigerator

Check if:

The drain hole for the water is not clogged (use defrost drain plug to clean the drain hole).

Recommendations

  • If the appliance is switched off or unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before plugging the appliance in or restarting it in order to prevent damage to the compressor.
  • The cooling unit of your refrigerator is located at the rear of the appliance. Therefore, water droplets or ice may form on the rear surface of your fridge due to the operation of the compressor at specified intervals. This is normal, there is no need to perform a defrosting operation unless there is excessive ice.
  • If you do not intend to use your fridge for a long period of time (such as during the summer holidays), set the thermostat to “•” position, defrost and clean your fridge, leaving the door open to prevent the formation of mildew and odour.
  • If a problem persists after you have followed all the above instructions, please consult the nearest authorised service centre.
  • The appliance you have purchased is designed for domestic use only. It is not suitable for commercial or common use. If the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does not comply with this, we emphasise that the manufacturer and the dealer will not be responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.

8 TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

  1. Install the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near a heat source (such as a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate should be used.
  2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them inside the appliance.
  3. Place thawing food in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of the frozen food will help cool the refrigerator compartment while the food is thawing. This will save energy. Frozen food left to thaw outside of the appliance will result in a waste of energy.
  4. Drinks or other liquids should be covered when inside the appliance. If left uncovered, the humidity inside the appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses more energy. Keeping drinks and other liquids covered helps preserve their smell and taste.
  5. Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the appliance and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
  6. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (such as the crisper and chiller) closed.
  7. The door gasket must be clean and pliable. In case of wear, if your gasket is detachable, replace the gasket. If not detachable, you have to replace the door.
  8. The product can be used without icemaker flap. Energy consumption is declared according to this option.
