Frequently Asked Questions - ICFZ145EW Icecool

How do I adjust the temperature on my Icecool ICFZ145EW fridge?

Use the mechanical thermostat dial inside the fridge compartment. Turn it clockwise for colder settings and counterclockwise for warmer. We recommend setting it to medium for normal use.

What is the recommended temperature for the refrigerator and freezer?

For optimal food preservation, set the fridge to around 4°C (40°F) and the freezer to -18°C (0°F). The ICFZ145EW allows adjustment from 0°C to 8°C for the fridge and -18°C to -12°C for the freezer.

How do I defrost the freezer compartment?

This model has manual defrost for the freezer. Turn off the appliance or set the thermostat to off, remove all food, and leave the door open. Place a towel to catch melting water. Do not use sharp tools to remove ice; let it melt naturally.

Can I reverse the door opening direction?

Yes, the door is reversible. You will need to unscrew the hinges and move them to the opposite side. Detailed instructions are in the user manual. Ensure you have the necessary tools and a helper for heavy doors.

Why is there water pooling at the bottom of my fridge?

This is usually due to a blocked defrost drain. Clean the drain hole at the back of the fridge with a pipe cleaner or soft wire. Also check that the drain pan is properly positioned.

How often should I clean the condenser coils?

Clean the condenser coils at least once a year to maintain efficiency. Use a vacuum cleaner with a brush attachment to remove dust. Ensure the appliance is unplugged before cleaning.

What does the noise level 42 dB(A) mean?

42 dB(A) is a moderate noise level, similar to a quiet conversation or background music. The fridge may occasionally make louder sounds due to the compressor or refrigerant flow, which is normal.

Is the Icecool ICFZ145EW energy efficient?

It has energy efficiency class F, which is standard for this type of fridge. Annual energy consumption is around 220 kWh. For lower bills, ensure the door seals are intact and the coils are clean.

What should I do if my fridge is not cooling properly?

First, check the thermostat setting and ensure it's not set too warm. Verify the door seals are clean and close tightly. Allow 24 hours after initial setup or after adding large amounts of food. If problem persists, contact a technician.

How do I change the interior light bulb?

The ICFZ145EW uses an LED light, which should last the lifetime of the appliance. If it fails, it must be replaced by a qualified professional. Do not attempt to replace it yourself as it involves electrical components.

3.3.2 ThePlastic Scraper

After some time, frost will build up in certain areas of the freezer. The frost accumulated in the freezer should be removed regularly. Use the plastic scraper provided, if necessary. Do not use sharp metal objects for this operation. They could puncture the refrigerator circuit and cause irreparable damage to the unit.

4 FOOD STORAGE

• The freezer is used for storing frozen food, freezing fresh food, and making ice cubes.
• For freezing fresh food; wrap and seal fresh food properly, that is the packaging should be air tight and shouldn't leak. Special freezer bags, aluminum foil polythene bags and plastic containers are ideal.
• Do not store fresh food next to frozen food as it can thaw the frozen food.
• Before freezing fresh food, divide it into portions that can be consumed in one sitting.
• Consume thawed frozen food within a short period of time after defrosting
• Never place warm food in the freezer compartment as it will thaw the frozen food.
• Always follow the manufacturer's instructions on food packaging when storing frozen food. If no information is provided food, should not be stored for more than 3 months from the date of purchase.
• When purchasing frozen food, make sure that it has been stored under appropriate conditions and that the packaging is not damaged.
• Frozen food should be transported in appropriate containers and placed in the freezer as soon as possible.
• Do not purchase frozen food if the packaging shows signs of humidity and abnormal swelling. It is probable that it has been stored at an unsuitable temperature and that the contents have deteriorated.

• The storage life of frozen food depends on the room temperature, the thermostat setting, how often the door is opened, the type of food, and the length of time required to transport the product from the shop to your home. Always follow the instructions printed on the packaging and never exceed the maximum storage life indicated.

• The maximum amount of fresh food (in kg) that can be frozen in 24 hours is indicated on the appliance label.

• Use the fast freezing shelf to freeze home cooking (and any other food which needs to be frozen quickly) more quickly because of the freezing shelf's greater freezing power. Fast freezing shelf is the bottom drawer of the freezer compartment.

NOTE: If you attempt to open the freezer door immediately after closing it, you will find that it will not open easily. This is normal. Once equilibrium has been reached, the door will open easily.

Important note:

• Never refreeze thawed frozen food.
• The taste of some spices found in cooked dishes (anise, basilica, watercress, vinegar, assorted spices, ginger, garlic, onion, mustard, thyme, marjoram, black pepper, etc.) changes and they assume a strong taste when they are stored for a long period of time. Therefore, add small amounts of spices to food to be frozen, or the desired spice should be added after the food has thawed.
• The storage time of food is dependent on the type of oil used. Suitable oils are margarine, calf fat, olive oil and butter. Unsuitable oils are peanut oil and pig fat.
• Food in liquid form should be frozen in plastic cups and other food should be frozen in plastic folios or bags.

5 CLEANING AND MAINTENANCE

Disconnect the unit from the power supply before cleaning.

Do not wash your appliance by pouring water on it.

Do not use abrasive products, detergents or soaps for cleaning the appliance. After washing, rinse with clean water and dry carefully. When you have finished cleaning, reconnect the plug to the mains supply with dry hands.

• Make sure that no water enters the lamp housing and other electrical components.
• The appliance should be cleaned regularly using a solution of bicarbonate of soda and lukewarm water.
• Clean the accessories separately by hand with soap and water. Do not wash accessories in a dish washer.

- Clean the condenser with a brush at least twice a year. This will help you to save on energy costs and increase productivity.

The power supply must be disconnected during cleaning.

5.1 Defrosting

Freezer defrosting process

• Small amounts of frost will accumulate inside the freezer, depending on the length of time the door may be left open or the amount of moisture introduced. It is essential to ensure that no frost or ice is allowed to form in places where it will affect the close fitting of the door seal. This might allow air to penetrate the cabinet, encouraging continuous running of the compressor. Thin frost formation is quite soft and can be removed with a brush or plastic scraper. Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process. Remove all dislodged frost from the cabinet floor. It is not necessary to switch off the appliance for the removal of thin frost.
• For the removal of heavy ice deposits, disconnect the appliance from the mains supply, empty the contents into cardboard boxes and wrap in thick blankets or layers of paper to keep cool. Defrosting will be most effective if carried out when the freezer is nearly empty and should be carried out as quickly as possible to prevent an unnecessary increase in the temperature of the contents.
• Do not use metal or sharp scrapers, mechanical devices or other means to accelerate the defrosting process. An increase in temperature of frozen food during defrosting will shorten the storage life. Keep contents well wrapped and cool while defrosting is taking place.

• Dry the inside of the compartment with a sponge or a clean cloth.
  • To accelerate the defrosting process, place one or more bowls of warm water in the freezer compartment.
• Examine the contents when replacing them in the freezer and if some of the packages have thawed out, they should be eaten within 24 hours, or be cooked and re-frozen.
• After defrosting is complete, clean the inside of the appliance with a solution of warm water and a little bicarbonate of soda, then dry thoroughly. Wash all removable parts in the same way and reassemble. Reconnect the appliance to the mains supply and leave for 2 to 3 hours on setting number '5' before introducing the food back into the freezer.

6 SHIPMENT AND REPOSITIONING

6.1 Transportation and Changing Positioning

• The original packaging and foam may be kept for re-transportation (optional).
• Fasten your appliance with thick packaging, bands or strong cords and follow the instructions for transportation on the packaging.
• Remove all movable parts (drawers, ice trays and so on) or fix them into the appliance against shocks using bands when re-positioning or transporting.

Always carry your appliance in the upright position.

6.2 Repositioning the Door

• It is not possible to change the opening direction of your appliance door if door handles are installed on the front surface of the appliance door.

• If the door-opening direction of your appliance can be changed, contact the nearest Authorised Service Centre to change the opening direction.

7 BEFORECALLINGAFTER- SALES SERVICE

If your freezer 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 appliance door is 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 freezer 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.

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.
• If you will not use your freezer for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) unplug it. Clean your freezer according to chapter cleaning and leave the door open to prevent humidity and smell.
• 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. 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.
4. 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.
5. The door gasket must be clean and pliable. In case of wear, replace the gasket.
