Frequently Asked Questions - KGK 2642 Nabo

How do I reverse the door on my Nabo KGK 2642 refrigerator?

To reverse the door, first unplug the appliance. You will need an 8mm socket wrench, screwdrivers, and a putty knife. Follow the step-by-step instructions in the manual: remove hinge covers, unscrew hinges, transfer door and hinge parts to the opposite side, and reassemble. Ensure the appliance is disconnected from mains during the process.

What does the temperature knob setting mean?

The knob has settings from 0 to 7. Setting 0 turns the refrigerator off. Settings 1 (warmest) to 7 (coldest). For normal use, a setting of 2, 3, or 4 is recommended. Higher ambient temperatures may require a colder setting, but avoid setting 6 or 7 in hot weather to prevent continuous compressor running.

How often should I defrost the freezer?

Defrost the freezer when the frost layer exceeds 10 mm, or at least once a month. If you open the door frequently or use the appliance in high humidity, defrost every two weeks. To defrost, turn the knob to 0, remove food, leave the door open, and clean the water residue with a soft cloth.

The refrigerator is making unusual noises. Is this normal?

Some noises are normal: compressor running, gurgling (refrigerant flow), popping (automatic defrosting), and clicking (before compressor starts). Unusual noises may be due to the appliance not being level, the back touching the wall, or bottles falling. Check and adjust the leveling feet or move the appliance slightly.

How do I clean the refrigerator interior and exterior?

For interior, use a weak bicarbonate of soda solution and warm water, then dry thoroughly. For exterior, use a mild detergent with a soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, thinners, or organic solvents. Clean door seals regularly to prevent sticking.

Can I store hot food directly in the refrigerator?

No. Hot food should be cooled to room temperature before placing it in the refrigerator. Storing hot food increases internal temperature, making the compressor work harder and consume more energy.

What should I do if the interior light does not work?

The LED light is not user-replaceable. If it fails, contact an authorized service center. Do not attempt to replace it yourself as it may cause injury or malfunction.

The refrigerator seems too cold or too warm. How can I adjust?

Adjust the temperature knob accordingly. If too warm, turn to a higher number (colder). If too cold, turn to a lower number. Allow 24 hours for temperature to stabilize. Also ensure doors are properly closed and not blocked.

How do I dispose of the refrigerator properly?

Do not dispose of it as household waste. It contains flammable refrigerant (R600a) and insulating gases. Take it to an authorized waste disposal center for recycling of electrical and electronic equipment. Cut off the power cord and remove the door to prevent child entrapment.

What are the recommended storage temperatures for different compartments?

The refrigerator compartment should be between 0°C and 8°C. The freezer compartment (if marked with ***) should be ≤ -18°C. Refer to the storage guide in the manual: meat and fish in coldest area, dairy and vegetables in designated drawers. Always follow storage times.

Defrosting

Why defrosting

●Water contained in food or getting into air inside the fridge be opening doors may form a frost layer inside. It will weaken the refrigeration when the frost is thick. While it is more than 10mm thick, you should defrost.

Defrosting in fresh food storage compartment

- It is automatically controlled by switching the temperature regulator on or off so that there is no need of operation of defrosting. Water from defrosting will be drained into an drip tray through a drain pipe at the back of the fridge automatically.

Defrosting in frozen-food storage compartment

●Defrosting in freezer chamber is operated manually. Before defrosting, take the food out.

●Take the ice tray and food in drawers out or put them into the fresh food compartment temporarily.

- Set the knob of the temperature regulator to position "0"(where the compressor will stop working) and leave the door of the refrigerator open until ice and frost dissolve thoroughly and accumulation at the bottom of the freezer chamber. Wipe off the water with soft cloth.

- In the case of speeding up the process of defrosting, you may put a bowl of warm water (about 50°C) into the freezer chamber, and scrape away the ice and frost with a defrosting spatula. After doing so, be sure to set the knob of the temperature regulator to the original position.

- It is not advisable to heat the freezer chamber directly with hot water or hair dryer while defrosting to avoid deformation of the inner case.

- It is also not advisable to scrape off ice and frost or separate food from the containers which have been congealed together with the food with sharp tools or wooden bars, so as not to damage the inner casing or the surface of the evaporator.

Warning! Switching off the appliance before defrosting, turn the temperature regulator to position "0".

Important! The fridge should be defrosted at least every one month. During the using process, if the door was opened frequently or using the appliance in the extreme humidity, we advise the user to defrost every two weeks.
