Care for the refrigerator begins with its transportation to your home, as well as proper placement and installation.
It is necessary to transport such equipment only in an upright position. If suddenly the refrigeration equipment was transported horizontally, then before turning it on, it must stand vertically for at least 4 hours.

The refrigerator should be placed away from any heat sources: stoves, radiators, windows with direct sunlight, etc. In addition, do not place refrigerators in rooms where the temperature drops below 15 ° C. The humidity in the room should be at least 80%.

Defrosting refrigerators.

Many modern models of refrigerators have an automatic defrost function, if your refrigerator does not have this option, it should be defrosted once every 2-3 months. If you notice that ice 1-2 cm thick has appeared on the evaporator, this is the first sign that the device needs defrosting.

In no case do not try to speed up the process of defrosting the device with knives, or sharp objects, as they can only damage your unit, and spoil not only its chamber surface but also the freon circulation system. Also do not use electric heaters and other improvised mechanisms for quick defrosting. When heaters touch plastic parts, they can melt.

In refrigerators with a built-in No Frost system, defrosting should be carried out at least once a year. This will help prevent contamination of the condensate drain and circulation system.

In order to reduce electricity consumption, do not open the refrigerator door too often and do not leave it open for a long time. In no case do not put hot food in the refrigerator, be sure to wait until they are completely cooled.

Do not overload the refrigerator with food. Excessive filling of the device may lead to the poor passage of cold air inside the chamber, which may cause the cooling process to stop.

Always check the condition of the closed door. If the rubber of the refrigerator door seal is damaged, replace it immediately.

Thanks to this, you can not only significantly reduce energy consumption but also reduce the risk of equipment breakdown.

If you are leaving home for a long time, it is better to unplug the refrigerator, remove all products from it and leave the door open.
