What are the advantages of a ‘frost free’ freezer? The mechanism on a freezer involves letting the cooling element heat up for a short period, melting any ice that has formed upon it and having it drain through a collecting duct at the back of the unit. The key advantages are: - No need to manually defrost the ice build up
- Food packaging is easier to see because it's clear of frost
- Most frozen foods don't stick together
- Smells are limited, especially in total frost free appliances, since the air is constantly circulating.
How often should I defrost the fridge icebox? In normal use approximately once a month.
Where is the black tube at the back of the fridge connected? It is a drain tube to allow defrosts water to trickle into the drain tray fitted above the compressor.
My appliance is struggling to maintain the correct temperatures. What could be the reason for it? Please ensure that it has been installed correctly and that adequate ventilation has been provided.
I have ice forming on the inside of my freezer. What could be the reason for it? Although the front décor panel seems to be fitting correctly it doesn't mean that the freezer door is. Please check that door seals are sealing correctly.
Where is the serial number of my refrigeration? Each product range has a fixed location for the rating plate which contains the Model and Serial Number information. When viewed from the front the rating plate - In a fridge or fridge freezer it is located inside the Fridge on the left hand side wall next to the salad drawer. On freezers you find the plate a little higher up on the same side. Please note that for a few models, it is on the right hand side.
