Frequently Asked Questions - CVBN 6184WBF/S CANDY

How to properly install my Candy CVBN 6184WBF/S refrigerator?

Place the appliance on a flat, solid floor, in a well-ventilated room, away from heat sources and direct sunlight. Leave a 10 cm space on the sides and back, and 30 cm above. Wait 2 hours before plugging it in after moving it. Adjust the front feet for leveling.

How to set the refrigerator temperature?

Use the SET button to cycle through the speeds (5 speeds). The display shows the current speed. For fast cooling, activate the corresponding mode which runs the appliance at 2°C for 150 minutes. For the freezer, adjustment is manual: position NORMAL, COLD (summer) or COLDER (winter).

Why is my refrigerator making noise?

Noises are normal: refrigerant circulation (gurgling) and compressor operation (humming). These noises are more pronounced with CFC-free gases. If the noise becomes intense, check that the appliance is level and that internal parts are properly in place.

Can I reverse the door opening direction?

Yes, the door is reversible. Follow the steps in the manual: remove the top, middle, and bottom hinges, then reassemble them on the opposite side. Make sure to correctly replace the joint protectors and level the appliance after the operation.

How to clean the interior of the refrigerator?

Unplug the appliance. Remove the shelves and vegetable drawer. Clean the interior with a solution of warm water and baking soda, then rinse with clear water. Wash the accessories with warm soapy water. Wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. The rear condenser can be dusted with a vacuum cleaner.

What to do in case of a power outage?

Do not open the door during the outage. If it lasts less than 20 hours, frozen food is not affected. Beyond that, check the food: consume it immediately or refreeze after cooking. To prevent bad odors, keep the door slightly open if the appliance remains unused for a long time.

How to save energy?

Install the appliance away from heat sources. Do not put hot food inside. Do not overload the compartments. Defrost regularly (if frost appears). Open the door as little as possible. Clean dust from the back. Reduce the temperature if it is too low (prefer a moderate speed).

What to do if the interior light no longer turns on?

The bulb is an LED lamp that must be replaced by a professional. Unplug the appliance before any intervention. Contact customer service or a qualified technician to carry out the replacement.

How to avoid odors in the refrigerator?

Carefully wrap strong-smelling foods (cheese, fish). Throw away expired food. Clean the interior regularly with baking soda. Leave the door slightly open during prolonged shutdown. Check that nothing blocks air circulation.

What to do if the door does not close properly?

Check that food or packaging is not blocking closure. Reduce the load if too much food is stored. Make sure the appliance is level (adjust the feet). Clean the door seal and check that it is not deformed.

Exit: 1. Operate 150min under the rapid cooling mode.

1. Temperature adjustment can exit from the rapid cooling mode.

• Temperature control of freezing chamber

The freezing temperature is relatively low in "COLDER" position, while the freezing temperature is relatively high in "COLD" position, thus, "NORMAL" position is generally used.

When ambient temperature is high in summer, the temperature shall be in the range from "NORMAL" to "COLD". If the ambient temperature is above 35°C, then "COLD" position shall prevail.

When ambient temperature is low in winter, the temperature shall be in the range from "NORMAL" to "COLDER". If the ambient temperature is below 10°C, then "COLDER" position shall prevail.

4.2 Noise Inside the Unit!

You may notice that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal, but you should be aware of them!

These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not affect the performance of your unit. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.

4.3 Tips for Keeping Food in the Unit

♦ Cooked meats/fishes should always be stored on a shelf above raw meats/fishes to avoid bacterial transfer. Keep raw meats/fishes in a container which is large enough to collect juices and cover it properly. Place the container on the lowest shelf. Leave space around your food, to allow air to circulate inside the unit. Ensure all parts of the unit are kept cool. To prevent transfer of favours and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruit and vegetables do not need to be wrapped. ◆ Always let pre-cooked food cool down before you put in the unit. This will help to maintain the internal temperature of the unit. To prevent cold air escaping from the unit, try to limit the number of times you open the door. We recommend that you only open the door when you need to put food in or take food out.

The following simple issues can be handled by the user. Please call the after-sale service department if the issues are not settled.

Inoperation	Whether the freezer is plugged and connected to power; Low voltage;Failure power or tripping circuit
Odor	Odorous foods should closely wrapped; Whether foods are rotten;Whether the interior shall be cleaned.
Long-term operation of compressor	It is normal that refrigerator operates for longer time in summer when the ambient temperature is higher;Do not put too much food in the freezer at one time;Do not put foods until they are cooled;Frequent opening of refrigerator door.
Illuminating light does not shine	Whether the refrigerator is connected to power, whether the illuminating light is damaged.
The refrigerator door can not be properly closed.	The freezer door is stuck by food packages; Too much food; Tilt refrigerator.
Loud noises	Whether the food is leveled, whether the refrigerator is balanced;Whether the refrigerator parts are properly placed.

7.1 Warm tips:

The refrigerator enclosure may emit heat during operation specially in summer, this is caused by the radiation of the condenser, and it is a normal phenomenon. Condensation: condensation phenomenon will be detected on the exterior surface and door seals of the freezer when the ambient humidity is large, this is a normal phenomenon, and the condensation can be wiped away with a dry towel. Buzz: Buzz will be generated by running compressor specially when starting up or shutting down.

8. TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING

For better energy saving we suggest:

Installing the appliance away from heat sources and not exposed to direct sunlight and in a well ventilated room.

Avoid putting hot food into the refrigerator to avoid increasing the internal temperature and therefore causing continuous functioning of the compressor.

Do not excessively stuff foods so as to ensure proper air circulation.

Defrost the appliance in case there is ice to facilitate the transfer of cold.

In case of absence of electrical energy, it is advisable to keep the refrigerator door closed.

Open or keep the doors of the appliance open as little as possible

Avoid adjusting the setting to temperatures too cold.

Remove dust present on the rear of the appliance
