Correctly positioning

Well Ventilating

There is a need for good ventilation around the refrigerator for easy dissipation of heat, high efficiency of refrigeration, and low power consumption. For this purpose, sufficient clear space should need around the refrigerator. Its back is at least 100mm away from the wall, its sides at least have a space of 100mm separately and the height from over its top is not less than 200mm. Clear space should be left to open its doors to 160.

Power Supply

The refrigerator is only applied with a power supply of single-phase alternating current of (220-240)V~/50Hz; If fluctuation of voltage in the district user is so large that the voltage exceeds the above scope, for safety sake, be sure to apply a.c. automatic voltage regulator to the refrigerator. The refrigerator must employ a special power socket instead of a common one with other electric appliances. Its plug must match the socket with ground wire.
Euromaid 246L Refrigerator- 04

Power Line Cord

The cord should be neither lengthened nor folded into the coil during operation. Moreover, it is forbidden that cord is kept close to the compressor at the back of the refrigerator, the surface temperature of which is quite high when operating. Touching with it would deactivate the insulation or cause leakage for electricity.

Euromaid 246L Refrigerator- 06

Protection from Moisture

Avoiding placing the refrigerator in a place where heavy moisture is present so as to minimize the possibility of rusty for its metal parts. Still more, the refrigerator is forbidden to be directly sprayed by water, otherwise, poor insulation and current leakage would occur.

★  When performing maintenance, make absolutely sure that the power plug is first disconnected from the power outlet.
★  Wipe the inner and outer surface of the refrigerator and its accessories with a wet cloth. If they are too dirty, scrub them with neutral detergent, and then clean them with water and dry them with a clean cloth. After this, a small quantify of glass wax is recommended to polish the refrigerator surface with a flannelette.
★ For cleaning, don’t use hot water, diluent, petrol, alcohol, kerosene, washing powder, cleanser, aikailinous detergent, acid, Chemical cloth, etc. So as not to damage the lacquer coat and plastics. It is forbidden that the refrigerator is directly sprayed with water. Otherwise, it would cause rusty or weaken the insulation.
★ Be careful to upkeep the sealing rubber bars of the doors. They should always be cleaned.
★ If the plastic parts in the refrigerator remain contaminated for a long time by oil (animal or vegetable), they will be easily aged and possibly cracked. The drain pan gets dirty very easily if it is not cleaned regularly, bad odors will be produced, get into the habit of cleaning this pan regularly.

Troubleshooting

1. When the refrigerator does not work
Check if there is a power failure.
Check if the power plug is plugged into the power outlet.
Check that the fuse has not blown.

2. When the refrigerator is cooling excessively
The temperature control dial may be set too high.
If you place foodstuffs containing a lot of moisture directly under the cool air outlets, they will freeze easily.
This does not indicate a malfunction.

3. When the refrigerator is not cooling sufficiently The food may be packed too tightly together which will block the flow of cool air.
You may have put something hot or a lot of foodstuffs into the refrigerator.
The door may not have been closed properly.
The door gaskets may be damaged. The refrigerator may not be ventilated.
There may be insufficient clearance between the refrigerator and the surfaces
Immediately both sides and above.
The temperature control dial may not be set properly.

4. When the defrosting water overflows inside the refrigerator and onto the floor.
Check that the drain pipe and the drain hose are not clogged.
Check that the drain pan is housed properly.

5. When condensation forms on the outside of the refrigerator. Condensation may form on the outside when the humidity is high such as during a wet season. This is the same result as the condensation formed when chilled water is poured into a glass. It does not, therefore, indicate a failure, wipe dry with a dry cloth.
6. When you hear a sound like water flowing.
A sound like water flowing is the refrigerant flowing. It does not indicate a malfunction.
7. When the cabinet’s side panel heats up The side panel of the cabinet will heat up when the door is opened or closed frequently, when starting the unit and when the unit operates in summer with high ambient outside temperature, In such case, do not touch the panel, it results from the dissipation of the heat from inside the cabinet, and it does not mean that something is wrong with the refrigerator.
