Frequently Asked Questions - SF-C11K SANYO

What should I do if the freezer is not cooling at all?

First, check if the power cord is plugged in and the socket has power. Ensure the circuit breaker is not tripped. If the power indicator lamp is off, there may be a power failure or loose connection. If all seems fine, contact a dealer.

Why is the freezer not cold enough despite running?

Possible reasons: improper installation (e.g., not level, too close to wall), temperature control knob set too low, frequent door openings, overloading with warm food, or the freezer placed in direct sunlight or near a heat source. Adjust settings and improve placement.

What causes loud noise from the freezer?

Loud noise may result from an uneven floor, the freezer vibrating against a wall, or objects behind the unit. Ensure the floor is firm and level, maintain 10cm clearance from the wall, and check for any items that may have fallen behind.

Is condensation on the outside of the freezer a problem?

No, condensation on the exterior (body, door, or gasket) is normal in high humidity, similar to a glass of cold water. Wipe it dry; it does not affect performance or food inside.

Why does the freezer make a water running sound?

That sound is the flow of refrigerant (liquid cooling the freezer). It is normal, not a malfunction.

How do I defrost the freezer?

Unplug the unit and remove all contents. Let frost melt naturally, or place a pan of hot water inside and close the door to speed up. After defrosting, drain water and dry interior with a soft cloth. Never use sharp tools to scrape frost.

How often should I clean the freezer and what products should I use?

Clean every 30-45 days. Unplug first, then use a soft cloth with neutral soapy water or mild detergent. Do not use acids, thinner, gasoline, or benzene. Rinse and dry thoroughly with a soft cloth. Never rinse with water.

What are the safety precautions for using this freezer?

Do not store flammable or explosive items (e.g., benzine, LP gas, alcohol). Avoid storing bottles or cans as they may burst. Do not touch food or metal containers with wet hands. Ensure the power cord is not damaged and the plug is fully inserted. Unplug before cleaning or long absence.

Can I store medicines or chemicals in the freezer?

No, items requiring strict temperature control (medicines, chemicals) should not be stored in a domestic chest freezer. Use only for food freezing.

What should I do if the freezer stops working or smells burning?

If abnormal smell or burning odor occurs, immediately unplug the power cord. Do not continue operation. Contact a dealer or service center for inspection. Never attempt to dismantle or repair yourself.

Please check the following points when you found the chest freezer is not working properly.

The inside is not cool at all	Check if the power lamp is not on• The Power Plug is unplugged from the socket.• A power failure has happened.• A domestic fuse or a breaker has been out.
The inside is not cool enough	Has the installation properly done?Is the Temperature control in the proper position?Isn't the chest freezer in the direct sunlight?Don't you frequently open-close the foam door?Haven't you stored too much stock at one time?
Loud noise is heard	Is the floor firm enough?Is the chest freezer rattling?Is there enough space between chest freezer and the wall?Isn't there a container or something dropped behind the chest freezer?
There is condensation on outer of the chest freezer	There is a possibility to build up condensation on the body, the door or on the packing, when humidity is quite high.It is the same situation as condensation on a glass with cold water.There is no problem.
Sound like water streaming	It is not a trouble. It is the sound of refrigerant (liquid for cooling the freezer).
Outer of the chest freezer is hot	It may become hot especially in summer or the beginning of the operationIt is because pipes are equipped to prevent the interior from condensation and release the heat.It does not affect the food inside

* Check these points above firstly and if you still have any trouble. Please contact a dealer.

The following conditions are not considered as troubles of the unit:

1. The refrigerating system runs for a long time when the freezer is used for the first time or more articles are put into it.
2. Sound of running water. This is merely the sound of running refrigerants.
3. Condensation is normal when ambient humidity is high. Drops of water appear on the exterior wall of the cabinet.

To freeze is the basic work condition for the freezer. In such conditions, the knob of the thermostat should be placed to the freezing range of "1" \~ "7" (usually set at "5"). Position "1" is in "weak cold" work condition and position "7" is in "strong cold" work condition. If fast

freezing is needed for articles, the knob of the thermostat should be set to the position "7" after the articles are put into the freezer. Turn it to its original position when the articles are frozen. Do not fast-freeze for more than 4\~5 hours or it is not good for the refrigerating system.

Work condition:

A green light and red light are installed on the temperature control panel. The red light is power indicator which lights up when power is on. The green light is on when the compressor is running, or off when compressor is not running. This makes it convenient to determine if there is power or not and if the refrigerating system is working or not.

Reminders During Use

1. Temperature of the freezer should not be too high. Articles may be wrapped in a plastic. Its weight is <2kg, and piled with a 15-10mm clearance among them in order to keep convection of the air inside the cabinet and maintain excellent freezing effect.

2. Avoid putting beverage cans and containers in the freezer to prevent breakage.

3. To reduce power consumption, avoid keeping door open for a long time.

4. If the frost on the interior walls is more than 5mm, defrosting should be done.

▶ Method of defrosting

1) Unplug the unit. Take out all contents of the freezer. After the freezer temperature rises, frost will melt or scale off.
2) To speed up defrosting, place a pan of hot water into the unit and close the door. After defrosting, drain the water and then use a soft cloth to dry the interior walls. Plug unit and resume operation.

Note: Never use Sharp utensils to scrape off frosting layers.

In normal using conditions, power interruption should be avoided. Should power be interrupted accidentally, do not put power on for five minutes to avoid damages to compressor.

▶ Care & cleaning

It is suggested that the freezer be cleaned periodically; generally clean it every 30\~45 days. Unplug before cleaning, and use soft cloth with neutral soap water or mid detergent to scrub inside and outside of the cabinet. Do not use acids, chemical thinner, gasoline or benzene for cleaning any parts of the chest freezer. Dry it with a soft cloth. Never use water to rinse the freezer.
