Refrigerator "Bosch" two-chamber "No Frost": reviews, technical characteristics, operating instructions, malfunctions, repairs

The German company offers customers a wide selection of refrigerators. However, in our time, the greatest demand is for two-chamber modifications that have the No Frost system. A feature of this type of refrigerator can be safely called high power. Devices are most often produced with a bottom-mounted freezer compartment. A fairly voluminous freshness zone allows you to store vegetables and fruits without any problems. The manufacturer also took care of the availability of space for various bottles. The energy consumption class in this case depends on the power of the modification. As a rule, models are produced with high-quality P300 refrigerant. However, despite their high quality, they sometimes fail. This happens most often due to improper use of the device.

User manual

Installing a refrigerator does not take much time. In addition, its legs can be adjusted. In order to make sure that the device is working, it should be connected to a 220 V network. You can always check the temperature in the chamber using the indication system. Modern models are produced with mechanical and electronic control. If we consider the first option, then you can adjust the climate control using the regulator.

Many electronically controlled models are available with a display. In this case, the temperature is adjusted on the central panel. Defrosting systems in the devices are of the static type. Thus, the models are quite simple to maintain. If necessary, the food freezing power in the chamber can be increased.

DISPOSAL INSTRUCTIONS

Disposal of an old refrigerator

When replacing your old refrigerator with a new one, please consider the following information. An old refrigerator is not completely unnecessary trash. The refrigerator contains valuable materials that can be recycled. An old refrigerator must be made safe and cannot be turned on:

• Disconnect the refrigerator's power plug from the mains

sockets

• Cut off the wires that are used to connect

refrigerator to the electrical outlet and throw them away along with the power plug.

• REMOVE THE LOCK to prevent

accidentally locking children playing in the refrigerator.

The refrigerator contains thermal insulating gases and refrigerants that require special measures for disposal. Ensure that the tubes in your refrigerator are not damaged before disposal.

Disposing of the packaging materials of your new refrigerator

Warning! Keep children away from packaging materials. When playing with packaging boxes and films, they can wrap themselves in them and suffocate,

Your new refrigerator has arrived

protective box to prevent damage during transportation. All packaging materials used in the packaging of your new refrigerator can be recycled in an environmentally friendly manner.

Compressor failure

What to do if the Bosch two-chamber refrigerator (No Frost) stops freezing? In most cases, the problem lies in a compressor failure. When this happens, repairs are very expensive. In order to inspect the device yourself, you need to remove the back cover of the refrigerator. You don't have to touch the pipe. First of all, it is important to twist the capacitor. It is attached near the roller. The next step is to remove the bottom filter.

After this, it will be possible to see the compressor of the Bosch refrigerator. When it breaks, it burns badly. In this case, the contacts appear blackened. As a rule, compressors are not repaired in workshops. In such a situation, the part can simply be replaced. Spare parts for refrigerators are ordered through service centers.

Problems with the thermostat

The thermostat is installed at the rear panel of the Bosch refrigerator (two-chamber, No Frost). Malfunctions with this part rarely occur. To repair the device, you will have to disconnect the base. It is attached to all models with screws. There is a small gasket under the base. Behind it there is a dehumidifier: you don’t have to touch it. In order to inspect the thermostat, you will have to twist the protective cover. In many models it is fixed on stops. In this case, the edge of the plate just needs to be pryed off with a sharp object.

After this, the thermostat can be carefully removed. During the inspection, the wiring connection is first checked. If the connecting contacts are broken, you can try to correct the situation using a soldering iron. If the problem is a breakdown of the regulator specifically, you need to contact a workshop.

Preparatory work. Main part of the installation

Before starting installation, you should always read the instructions from the manufacturer and find out about the installation requirements for it. Some models of modern production require special conditions and additional installation requirements. This category may include, for example, smart refrigerators. They require conditions that are not imposed on conventional units.

After delivery, the refrigerator should not be immediately released by the seller’s representatives, but should be unpacked and inspected for damage in their presence. Inspect the body of the refrigerator: it should not have dents or scratches. The power cord should be carefully examined for scratches, kinks or other defects from the factory. If there are problems, the refrigerator should be returned initially to avoid further power failures and breakdowns.

If there are no comments, you can proceed with installation. The refrigerator is leveled at the place where it was originally intended to be placed. The cable should be securely fastened to the back wall. You can only plug it in after 12 hours. The time depends on the method of transportation. If it was tilted, then this time increases to 24 hours. After the specified time has passed, all that remains is to plug it into the outlet. The outlet must be grounded.


Refrigerator grounding method8

Terminal box repair

It very rarely fails. This usually happens due to overvoltage in the network. In this case, repairing Bosch refrigerators must begin by disconnecting the motor. It is located next to the pipe, however, it is prohibited to touch it. The capacitor must be removed during repairs. The terminal box is located at the bottom of the refrigerator body. It is located on a small stand, which the manufacturer specially built for it. To repair the part, the base does not need to be unscrewed.

To repair the terminal box, first wipe the contacts. After this, inspect the pipe. If there is moisture on it, it should be removed. This can be done with a regular rag. If the above steps do not help, then you will have to take the refrigerator to a service center.

injuries!

• If the refrigerator is operated at temperatures above

32°C, leave a space of 13 mm on the sides and top of the refrigerator for the circulation of cooling air.

Respect the ambient temperature

Depending on the “climate category” (see data plate), the device can be used at the following ambient temperatures.
(The data plate can be found inside the instrument, on the lower left side. Fig. 16
).

Climate category

Ambient temperature from…

SN N
ST T
+10°C to 32°C +16°C to 32°C +18°C to 38°C +18°C to 43°C

If temperatures fall below the ambient temperature range, the refrigerator compartment will become too cold. If the temperature exceeds the ambient temperature range, the freezer compartment will become too warm. If the ambient temperature drops below the temperature set in the refrigerator, the latter will drop to the ambient temperature. At ambient temperatures below +10°C, functional malfunctions may occur during automatic defrosting of the inside of the refrigerator.

INSTALLATION

ACCOMMODATION

It is recommended to install the refrigerator in a dry and well-ventilated place. Do not expose it to direct sunlight or place it near heat sources (stoves, heaters, etc.). If you still need to place it near a heat source, install an appropriate heat insulating plate or maintain the correct distance from the heat source:

• For electric stoves - 3 cm.

• For liquid or coal heaters - 30 cm.

If the refrigerator is to be installed next to another refrigerator or freezer, a 2 cm gap must be left between them to prevent the formation of water vapor.

Before first use, the inside of the refrigerator must be completely cleaned. (See the section “Cleaning the refrigerator”).

The device must be stable and level. To compensate for uneven floors, use the two height-adjustable feet on the front of the appliance, fig. 17

Two casters at the back of the device make it easy to install into openings.

CHANGING DOOR OPENING

Follow the sequence in Fig. 18

Replacing the dryer

Some models have very poor quality dehumidifiers. If the temperature regime is violated, they fail. In this case, repairing Bosch refrigerators should begin by unscrewing the back cover. The next step is to inspect the model's capacitor. If there is no moisture on it, that's good. The dryer itself is located behind the compressor cover. You can remove it using a wrench.

After disconnecting the part, inspect it carefully: there may be various defects. If there is no external damage, then the problem lies in the failure of the relay itself. In this case, it is easier to completely replace the dehumidifier. The device marking is always indicated by the manufacturer on the rear panel.

Tips to speed up the process

If a significant amount of frost has formed on the walls of the chambers, and there is no way to wait for this “fur coat” to melt, speed up the defrosting process in the following ways :

  1. Fan, hairdryer. Open the camera door and secure its position. Turn on the fan so that it directs a flow of warm air into the appliance compartment. You can also use a hair dryer, but you should keep it at a distance of 30-40 cm from the walls of the chambers so as not to damage the plastic parts of the equipment and to prevent moisture from getting into the hair dryer.
  2. Place a cutting board at the bottom of the refrigerator compartment and place a pan with warm liquid on top of it. Instead of dishes, you can use a rubber heating pad. When the water in the container cools down, replace it with a new one.
  3. Soak a rag in hot water and wipe the walls of the chamber with it, or pour warm liquid into a spray bottle and spray it on frozen surfaces.
  4. If your vacuum cleaner has an air blowing mode, set this function and treat the walls with a warm stream. When the frost begins to thaw, turn on the suction mode (if the vacuum cleaner is a washing one) and remove the moisture.

Read about how to turn on the refrigerator after defrosting here.

Any household appliance needs careful handling and regular maintenance . Refrigerators are no exception to this rule.

To ensure that your device operates normally and ice forms on its walls as little as possible, strictly follow the operating instructions for the device and, if necessary, defrost the device.

Reviews of "Bosch KG39"

Most users like the Bosch two-chamber refrigerator (No Frost). Positive reviews primarily point to the convenient arrangement of the shelves. If necessary, a large saucepan can be placed in the chamber. The user can easily rearrange the shelves. In this case, the doors are also rehung. These large refrigerators (two-chamber) make noise only at maximum load. They do not have a minibar. It is also important to note that only one compressor is used. Thus, you can forget about quick freezing. The temperature can be adjusted. The lower linkage in the device can withstand heavy loads. The price of the model is from 65 thousand rubles.

New model "Bosch W31"

This Bosch two-chamber refrigerator (No Frost) has different reviews. If we look at the advantages of the model, it is important to note that it has low power consumption. The refrigerator shelves are made of tempered glass. The motor is of high quality. However, filters sometimes have to be changed. The volume of the device chamber is 345 liters. On average, the noise level does not exceed 34 dB. Refrigerant is provided. The model has pull-out boxes installed at the bottom. If necessary, you can choose the color of the refrigerator when ordering. This model costs around 70 thousand rubles.

How to properly level a refrigerator

If the place is ready, then you can start working. The place must ensure its stable position. Therefore, it should be given the correct horizontal position. To do this, use a construction level.

Any installation of the refrigerator is carried out according to the level. There should be no bending to the side, but there should be a bend back. This allows the doors to slam shut on their own under their own weight and not open spontaneously in the future. The backward tilt angle must be set in accordance with the instructions. Each manufacturer has its own installation requirements, for example, for Atlant and Bosch refrigerators, the angle should not exceed 15 degrees. This is done by adjusting its front legs. If everything is done correctly, then the final result will have a strictly horizontal and vertical position with a slight slope back.


Correct leveling of the refrigerator

Incorrect leveling of the refrigerator is the main reason for the noisy operation of the refrigerator. Therefore, manufacturers and craftsmen strongly recommend using a level during installation of the unit. This guarantees correct and reliable operation of the device.

Review of the Bosch 36SQ refrigerator

Many buyers highly value the Bosch two-chamber refrigerator (No Frost). Owner reviews indicate that the model operates quietly and requires virtually no maintenance. The freezer is small in volume, but the boxes are made of very high quality. If necessary, the shelves can be pulled out.

The model's energy consumption is insignificant. The compressor works without failures and breaks down extremely rarely. It is also important to note that the model has a “Fresh” function. Thus, vegetables can be stored for a long time. The main chamber is quite spacious. The price for this Bosch two-chamber refrigerator (No Frost) in stores is not very high. This model costs approximately 77 thousand rubles.

Why is the procedure needed?

The process of ice formation is called freezing . As a rule, older models of electrical appliances are most susceptible to this “disease”.

Most modern refrigerators are equipped with a no-frost system, which provides automatic removal of frost.

However, appliances of this type also require periodic defrosting, since equipment owners often violate the operating rules of the unit: hot dishes are placed on the shelves of the appliance, the refrigerator door is left open for a long time.

Ice on the walls contributes to the deterioration of heat exchange between the chamber and the evaporator . As a result, the air temperature in the freezer or refrigerator compartment rises, and the device begins to work in intensive mode.

Which, in turn, can lead to spoilage of products placed in storage, premature wear of the compressor, the electric motor of the device and complete failure of the equipment.

Is your refrigerator brand Bosch?

Not really

ATTENTION! The refrigerator, like any device, needs periodic washing and disinfection of surfaces, which is advisable to carry out simultaneously with the procedure for thawing the device.

This article will tell you how to defrost a two-chamber Indesit refrigerator.

What is different about the Bosch A55 model?

These refrigerators often receive positive reviews for their compactness and versatility. Fruits and vegetables can be stored in the chamber. A distinctive feature of the model is the presence of a minibar. The refrigerator shelves are made of durable tempered glass. This model has a large freezer compartment. According to the owners, the shelves allow you to store large pots. Bottles can be stacked on the door if necessary. The lower supports can withstand heavy loads. Problems with compressors rarely occur.

Filters have to be changed periodically. Direct freezing is carried out quickly. If we talk about the parameters, then during the year of operation of the device, about 230 kW of electricity is consumed. The noise level of the model at maximum load does not exceed 35 dB. An ice box is installed in the freezer. The model's shelves slide out without any problems. It is also important to mention the reliable casing with a protective coating. Condensation rarely forms on it. If necessary, the door can be moved to the other side. You can buy this refrigerator much cheaper - for 58 thousand rubles.

DIY installation of a built-in refrigerator

Compact refrigerators have become increasingly popular in recent years. This is due, first of all, to saving room space. Their benefit is obvious: there is little or no noise, they can be hidden, and do not disturb the overall design of the room.

This technique has its own characteristics, so when installing any built-in refrigerator, the following requirements must be met:

  • The front legs of the built-in unit must be unscrewed. This will provide a slight slope (about 2 degrees) and will allow the door to close tightly.
  • If there is a stove or other cooking devices nearby, the distance between them should be at least 7 cm. They have a detrimental effect on the full functioning of the cooling compressor.
  • The installation site must be level, without slopes. This will eliminate problems with the compressor humming during operation.
  • The niche in which the device is supposed to be placed must provide good air circulation. The distance between the walls of the refrigerator and the niche must be at least 1 cm. This will prevent further overheating.
  • The cord should not dangle. You can fix it at the back wall of the refrigerator. This will prevent further bending and fractures during operation.
  • It is preferable that the niche does not have rear walls.

ELECTRICAL CONNECTION

Connect the device to an alternating current network of 220-240 V (SN/N), 220-230 V (ST) 50 Hz and only to a socket that is installed in accordance with the relevant standards. The outlet must be protected by a fuse of 10 A or greater. (see data plate Fig.16

)

VENTILATION

Warm air must flow freely behind the refrigerator. If there is no free flow, the capacitor will have to work harder, resulting in increased power consumption. Therefore, do not close ventilation valves and grilles under any circumstances.

AFTER SHIPPING...

Before turning on for the first time, allow the appliance to stand upright for approximately half an hour.
