Frequently Asked Questions - AT096FG Acros

How do I install the refrigerator?

Place the fridge on a level surface, away from direct sunlight and heat sources. Allow at least 10 cm clearance around the sides and back for ventilation. After installation, wait 2-3 hours before powering on to allow the refrigerant to settle.

What is the recommended temperature setting?

The ideal temperature for the refrigerator compartment is between 3°C and 5°C. Adjust the thermostat dial accordingly. Higher numbers (e.g., 5-6) are colder; start with a medium setting (3-4) and adjust as needed.

How often should I defrost the refrigerator?

This model requires manual defrosting. Defrost when the frost layer reaches about 5 mm thickness. Unplug the fridge, remove food, and let the ice melt. Clean the interior before restarting.

Can I change the door swing direction?

Yes, the door is reversible. Refer to the user manual for detailed instructions. You will need to remove the door, swap the hinges and handle to the opposite side. Basic tools (screwdriver) are required.

Why is my refrigerator making noise?

Normal sounds include a humming compressor, gurgling refrigerant flow, and occasional clicking from the thermostat. If the noise is loud or unusual, ensure the fridge is level and not touching walls or cabinets.

How do I clean the refrigerator?

Unplug the unit. Remove all food and shelves. Wipe interior surfaces with a solution of warm water and mild detergent. Rinse with clean water and dry thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners. Clean the condenser coils (if accessible) every 6 months.

What does the 'climate class' mean?

Climate class indicates the ambient temperature range the fridge can operate in. For N/ST, it is suitable for environments from 16°C to 38°C. Operating outside this range may affect performance.

Is the refrigerator energy efficient?

The estimated energy consumption is about 0.5 kWh per 24 hours, placing it in energy class A+ (typical for this size). Actual consumption depends on usage and ambient temperature.

Can I store frozen food in this fridge?

This is a single-door refrigerator without a separate freezer compartment. It is designed for fresh food storage only. For frozen items, use a dedicated freezer.

How do I replace the interior light bulb?

Unplug the fridge. Remove the light cover (usually by pushing or unscrewing). Replace the LED module with an identical part (available from Acros service). Avoid touching the new LED with bare fingers. Refit the cover and restart.
