Home Solutions 

1. Regular Cleaning

Clean your refrigerator's interior and exterior monthly. Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap solution to wipe down surfaces. Pay attention to the Deo Fresh Technology module to maintain its odor-absorbing efficiency.

2. Check Door Seals

Inspect and clean the door gaskets quarterly. It features removable anti-bacterial gaskets for easy cleaning. Ensure they're free from debris and form a tight seal when closed to prevent cool air leakage.

3. Temperature Settings

Adjust temperature settings seasonally. The digital control panel allows easy temperature adjustment. For energy savings, set the fridge to 3-4°C* and the freezer to -18°C* using the convertible feature.

4. Maintain Proper Airflow

Keep vents unobstructed for efficient cooling. With Magic Cooling, ensure items don't block air vents. This helps maintain 360-degree cooling and prevents overworking of the Expert Inverter Technology compressor.

5. Defrost Regularly

Although many models are frost-free, occasionally check for frost buildup. If noticed, activate the defrost feature. Regular defrosting helps maintain optimal performance and prevents ice accumulation.

6. Replace Water Filters

If your model has a water dispenser,  like the 2.5L BPA-free dispenser, replace the water filter every 6 months or as recommended. This ensures clean, fresh-tasting water and ice, and prevents contaminant buildup.

7. Organize Contents

Properly organize your fridge to maximize airflow and efficiency. Use the large fruit and vegetable boxes to store produce separately. This helps maintain freshness and prevents odor from food items.

8. Check Ice Maker

Clean the ice maker and bin monthly. For models with a Jumbo Ice Maker empty the bin, wash with mild soap, and dry thoroughly. This prevents ice clumps and ensures a steady supply of fresh ice.

9. Monitor Power Fluctuations

Take advantage of the stabilizer-free operation. While these refrigerators can handle voltage fluctuations, consider using a voltage stabilizer in areas with frequent power issues to protect the appliance long-term.
