Indesit NTA 18 [11/12] Installation and setting up

Installation and Setting up

Proper installation of the appliance is essential to

ensure the best and most efﬁcient performance of

your appliance.

Ventilation

The compressor and condenser generate heat and,

therefore, need to be ventilated properly. Rooms with less

than perfect ventilation are not very suited for installation

of the appliance. Therefore, it should be installed in a

room with an opening (window or French window) that

provides the appropriate amount of air recirculation. It is

also important that the room should not be too humid.

During installation, make sure not to cover or obstruct the

grates that allow proper ventilation of the appliance. For

proper ventilation of the appliance, you must leave:

– a space of at least 10 cm between the top part and any

cabinets above it;

– a space of at least 5 cm between the sides of the

appliance and any adjacent cabinets/walls.

Away from Heat

Avoid positioning the appliance in a place where it is

directly exposed to sunlight or near an oven, cook top or

the like.

Levelling

The ﬂoor should be perfectly levelled; if not, you can

adjust the feet at the front of the appliance.

Before placing foodstuffs in the refrigerator or freezer,

clean the interior well with warm water and baking soda.

After having plugged the appliance in, make sure that

pilot lamp is light.

Set thermostat knob onto a medium position and can

place food in the fridge after only a few hours.

When the freezer has reached the optimum temperature,

you can place frozen food in the freezer.

Earthing

Before making the electrical connection, check that the

voltage shown on the data plate, that you will ﬁnd on the

bottom left hand side of the appliance next to the crisper,

corresponds to that of your mains and that the socket is

earthen in conformity with all current electrical regulations.

If the system is not earthen, the manufacturer declines all

liability for consequent damages or losses. Do not use

adapters or multiple sockets.

Check the power load

The electrical socket must support the maximum power

load of the appliance shown on the data plate (on the

bottom left hand side of the appliance next to the

crisper).

Before plugging the appliance to the mains

Set the appliance upright and wait at least 3 hours before

plugging the appliance into the mains to ensure proper

performance.

This appliance complies with the following

Community Directives:

- 73/23/EEC of 19.02.73 (Low Voltage) and

subsequent amendments;

- 89/336/EEC of 03.05.89 (Electromagnetic

Compatibility) and subsequent amendments;

- 2002/96/EC (WEEE).

Energy saving tips

Troubleshooting

Install it well

This means that the appliance should be installed away

from heat sources or direct sunlight in a well-ventilated

room.

Correct temperature settings

Set the refrigerator or freezer temperature knob to one of

the medium settings. Very low temperatures will not only

consume a great deal of energy but will neither improve

or lengthen the storage life of the food. Excessively low

temperature may in fact spoil vegetables, cold meats and

cheese.

Do not overﬁll

Remember that proper storage of food requires good air

circulation. Overﬁlling your appliance will prevent this

circulation and overwork the compressor.

Shut the doors

Open your appliance only when strictly necessary;

remember that every time you open the door most of

the cold air will be lost. The motor will have to run, and

consume energy, to restore the correct temperature.

Check the door gaskets

Keep the gaskets clean and soft so that they ﬁt closely

against the door to ensure that no cold air is lost.

Never store hot foods

A container of hot food in the refrigerator will increase

the temperature signiﬁcantly; allow food to cool to room

temperature before storing.

If the appliance does not work, before calling for Service

center (see Service certiﬁcate),

check for a solution from the following list.

Green LED does not light up

Have you checked whether:

The main switch for the power supply to the apartment

or home has been turned off;

The plug is properly inserted in the outlet;

The outlet is adequate; try inserting the plug into another

outlet in the room.

The refrigerator and the freezer do not cool properly

Have you checked whether:

The doors do not close well or the seals are faulty;

The doors are left open too long;

The thermostat knob is not on the proper setting;

The refrigerator or freezer is overﬁlled.

The food in the refrigerator becomes too cold

Have you checked whether:

The thermostat knob is on the proper setting;

The food is in contact with the back wall – which is the

coldest part.

The motor runs continuously

Have you checked whether

The doors are not closed well or have remained open

too long;

The ambient temperature is too high;

The thermostat knob is not on the proper setting.

The appliance makes too much noise

The gas refrigerant produces a slight noise even when

the compressor is not running (this is not a defect).

Have you checked whether:

The refrigerator is level.

The appliance was installed between cabinets or objects

that vibrate and make noise.

There is water on the bottom of the refrigerator

Have you checked whether:

The hole for draining the water from the frost is clogged

(see ﬁg. 1).

If after all the checks, the appliance still does not оperate

or the problem persists, call the nearest Service Centre

and inform them of: the type of problem, the abbreviation

of the model name (Mod.) and the relative numbers (S/ N)

written on the rating plate located at the bottom left next

to the vegetable crisper (see examples in the ﬁgures below).

Never call on unauthorized technicians and always

refuse spare parts, which are not originals.
