Frequently Asked Questions - F4151CW GORENJE

Why won't the freezer door open?
If the door was just opened, wait a few minutes for air pressure to equalize. Underpressure from cooling can seal the door temporarily. This is normal and should resolve in 1-3 minutes.
What should I do if the temperature in the freezer is too high?
Check ambient temperature (should be between 10°C and 43°C depending on class). Ensure the thermostat is set correctly. Relocate the appliance if near heat sources. Also check that the door is not left open and that air ventilation behind the appliance is not obstructed.
Why does the compressor run continuously?
The compressor may run continuously if the door is frequently opened, a large quantity of fresh food has been added, or the thermostat is set too low. Ensure proper ventilation and that the door closes properly. Adjust the temperature setting as needed.
How can I reduce excessive frost and ice build-up?
Regularly defrost when the frost layer reaches 3-5 mm. Ensure the door is not left open and that the gasket is intact and clean. Avoid placing warm food directly inside. Check that nothing prevents the door from closing completely.
What normal sounds should I expect from the freezer?
Normal sounds include a liquid gurgling or hissing when the refrigerant flows, and the compressor humming during operation. These are normal and do not affect performance. If unusual noises occur, check that the freezer is level and not touching walls or cabinets.
How long can frozen food be stored during a power failure?
Avoid opening the freezer during a power failure. Most foods will stay frozen for about 24 hours if the door remains closed. For longer interruptions, move food to another freezer or consume it promptly.
How do I defrost the freezer?
24 hours before defrosting, activate Super Freezing mode to cool packages. Then disconnect the appliance and leave the door open. Do not use sharp tools or hair dryers. Wipe the interior with a sponge and clean cloth. Reconnect after defrosting.
What cleaning agents can I use on the freezer?
For the exterior, use water and mild liquid detergent. For the interior, use lukewarm water with a little vinegar. Avoid abrasive or aggressive cleaners. Rinse thoroughly and dry before reconnecting.
Can the door opening direction be reversed?
Yes, the door is reversible. Follow the detailed instructions in the manual: remove screws, top cover, upper hinge, door, bottom hinge, and then reassemble with the bracket turned. Ensure proper alignment before tightening.
How can I save energy with the freezer?
Keep the door closed as much as possible. Ensure adequate ventilation behind the appliance (at least 200 cm² free space). Turn the thermostat to a lower setting when possible. Defrost regularly when frost is 3-5 mm thick. Check that the door gasket is intact.

Before Putting Into Use

  • Before connecting the appliance to the mains supply, leave it stand for about 2 hours which will reduce the possibility of malfunctions in the cooling system that might have occurred due to transport handling.
  • Clean the appliance thoroughly, especially the interior (see Cleaning and Maintenance).

Instructions for Use

These instructions for use were prepared for the user. They describe the appliance and its correct and safe use. They were prepared for various types/models of appliances therefore you might find in it description of some functions and accessories that do not apply to your appliance.

We Care for the Environment

  • Our products use environmentally friendly packaging, which can be either recycled or disposed of in an environmentally friendly manner. To this end, individual packaging materials are clearly marked.
  • These instructions are printed either on recycled paper or chlorine-free bleached paper.

- When your appliance finally wears out, please try not to burden the environment with it; call your nearest authorized service agent. (See Disposing of the Worn Out Appliance)

Tips for Energy Saving

  • Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is wet and hot. Once you open the door, mind to close it as soon as possible. This is especially important if you have an upright model.
  • Every now and then check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation behind the appliance).
  • Turn the thermostat knob from higher to lower setting as soon as possible (depends on how loaded the appliance is, ambient temperature...)
  • Never use continuous operation unless unnecessarily required; switch the operation mode selection switch to the setting for automatic operation as soon as possible.
  • Before freezing packages of fresh foods, make sure they are cooled to ambient temperature.
  • Ice and frost layer increase energy consumption, so do clean the appliance as soon as the layer is 3-5 mm thick.
  • If the gasket is damaged or if it turns out that the sealing is poor, the energy consumption is substantially higher. To restore efficiency, replace the gasket.
  • The condenser on the rear wall should be always clean, free of dust or any impurities.

- Always consider instructions stated in sections Positioning and Energy Saving Tips, otherwise the energy consumption is substantially higher.

GORENJE F4151CW - Tips for Energy Saving - 1

Important

  • If you've bought this appliance to replace an old one equipped with a lock that cannot be opened from inside (lock, bolt), make sure that the lock is broken. This will make it impossible for the children to lock themselves in the appliance and suffocate.
  • Mind to connect the appliance correctly to the mains supply (see Connection to the Mains Supply).
  • Do not touch the cooled surfaces while the appliance operates, especially not with wet hands, because the skin might stick to the cold surfaces.
  • Do not freeze bottled drinks, especially not fizzy ones such as mineral water, sparkling wine, beer, cola etc., because liquid expands during freezing and the glass bottle is very likely to blow up.
  • Never try to eat frozen food (bread, fruit, vegetables), because you may get frostbites.
  • Carefully check the foods for color and smell and if you are in doubt about their quality, throw them away because they may be spoiled and therefore dangerous to eat.
  • Disconnect the appliance from the mains before repairing (only a qualified technician should repair it) and before cleaning.
  • Do not defrost the appliance with other electric devices (hair dryer etc.) and never scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp tools. Use only enclosed tools or tools recommended by the manufacturer.
  • For the sake of environment protection - be careful not to damage the rear wall of the appliance (the condenser unit or the tubes - for example when moving the appliance) or any part of the refrigerating system inside the appliance.
  • The refrigerating system of the appliance is filled with refrigerant and oil, so when the appliance is damaged, handle it with care and dispose it of in compliance with environmental protecting precautions. (See We Care for the Environment).
  • Heating element incorporated in the appliance, all around the rim, is controlled

by the operation of the compressor and it prevents the door gasket to freeze on to the freezer compartment.

  • When activating the "Super" function, the red light may turn on. This is normal condition and there is no need for warning.
  • If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer or his service agent or a qualified person in order to avoid hazard.
  • The rating plate is in the interior or on the rear wall of the appliance.

Using the freezer

This appliance is designed to conserve frozen foods, to freeze fresh food and to make ice-cubes.

Do not freeze a large quantity of food at any one time, as the faster an item is frozen, the more it will keep its qualities. Similarly, make sure that you wrap your foodstuffs before freezing, so that they retain their full flavour and do not spoil the other products.

The conservation time for frozen foods depends on the type of food. Refer to the instructions on the packaging.

Never place hot foods in your freezer. Never place bottles or drinks cans in it either, as they can burst when their contents freeze.

Highly carbonated drinks can even explode! NEVER keep lemonade, fruit juice, beer, wine, champagne, etc. in the freezer compartment.

IMPORTANT! The display always shows the set temperature, not the actual one.

Note that the ambient temperature, the temperature of freshly stored food, and how often the door is opened affect the temperature in the freezer compartment. If required, change the temperature setting.

Use

Freezing Fresh Foods

Proper use of the appliance, adequately packed food, correct temperature, and taking into account hygienic precautions will substantially influence the quality of freezing the food or storing the frozen foodstuffs.

  • Carefully select food to be frozen: it should be of adequate quality and suitable for freezing.
  • Choose correct packaging for each kind of food and pack it correctly.
  • The packaging should be air tight and well sealed without leaking, since this could cause substantial vitamin loss and dehydration.
  • Foils and bags should be soft enough to tightly wrap around the food.
  • Mark packages with the following data: kind and amount of foods and the date of loading.
  • It is most important that the food is frozen as quickly as possible. We therefore recommend that the size of the package not be too large and that it be cooled before loading into the freezer.
  • The amount of fresh foods that can be loaded in the freezer within 24 hours is stated on the rating plate. If the loaded amount is too large, the quality of freezing is reduced, which affects the quality of frozen foods.

Freezing Procedure

The freezing compartment is used for freezing foodstuffs (see chapter "Description of the Appliance").

  • If you want to freeze a larger amount of fresh food, choose Super freezing MODE.
  • Don't let the fresh packages touch the frozen ones.
  • Some 24 hours after the last load, set the thermostat knob to the position for normal operation.
  • There is no need to choose "Super freezing MODE" if you intend to freeze a smaller amount of fresh foods.

Storing Frozen Foods

Packages of frozen foods are stored in baskets. If you remove the baskets, you can store frozen packages directly on the cooling shelves.

Storing Commercially Frozen Foods

The storage time and recommended temperature for storing commercially frozen foods are indicated on the packaging. For storing and use, consider the manufacturer's instructions. When shopping, be careful and choose only packages of foods that are adequately packed, provided with complete data, and stored in freezers where the temperature is not higher than -18°C.

Do not buy packages of food wrapped with frost. This indicates that the package was thawed at least once before.

Take care that packages don't start to thaw. A temperature rise shortens the storage time of commercially frozen foods.

Defrosting of Frozen Food

Partially thawed or defrosted foods should be used as soon as possible. Cold air preserves the food but it does not destroy microorganisms which rapidly activate themselves after defrosting and make foods perishable.

Partial defrosting reduces the nutritional value of foods, especially of fruits, vegetables and ready-made meals.

Changing the Direction of Opening the Door

  1. Remove the 2 screws on the back.
  2. Carefully lift the top cover 5CM away from the freezer, pull out the wire connector, then remove the top cover away.
