Before starting the appliance, follow the installation instructions see Installation. Before connecting the appliance, clean the raw foods. This is quite normal so do not worry if you hear one or two different sounds than those you heard with your old appliance.

If you are hearing a cracking noise then this is perfectly normal. Your freezer will defrost itself usually once a day and during this time the ice melts.

Just like when ice cubes melt in a drink a cracking sound may be heard. The melted water produced when your Hotpoint appliance auto defrosts itself goes to a water collection point on the rear of your appliance that sits above the compressor.

As the compressor gets warm during everyday usage the resultant moisture is evaporated. Should the water container described above get contaminated by spillages within the appliance or foreign bodies getting into the water drip tray itself then we recommend using our Fridge Cleaner.

Simply spray onto any internal or external parts of your appliance and wipe away. It is vitally important, that all four corners of your appliance are in contact with the floor. Failure to level your Hotpoint freezer can result in an increase in the noise levels. You may also find on some of our taller Hotpoint freezer that failure to level the feet will give the impression of the Hotpoint freezer doors having drooped on one side. To level your Hotpoint freezer it is recommended that you get help from a second person to hold the appliance whilst you lift the front feet slightly off the ground then adjust one or both feet until you get a satisfactory level again.

To rectify a dropped door we recommend that you lengthen the foot on the hinged side of the Hotpoint freezer, leave the appliance for a day or so and this should disappear. You must not stack your Hotpoint refrigeration appliances directly on top of each other as the cabinets of the appliances are not suitable for this purpose.

In order to be able to stack appliances you will need to purchase a product that is designed and built with this type of floor space saving feature such as an Hotpoint fridge freezer. You will find door reversal instructions for each appliance including diagrams inside the user manual that came with your appliance.

Call us to book a door reversal with one of our skilled engineers on - A charge will be applied. If you are in any doubt as to how to achieve this always refer back to your appliances user instruction manual for guidance. If you do not have your user manual you can download a replacement manuals. If this is not required simply press the button or reverse the switch to put the appliance back into its normal operating mode. The holiday button that is fitted to certain models is to be used after you have emptied the appliance and intend to be away from the house for a number of days or weeks.

During this period of absence your appliance will run on the bare minimum of temperatures within the freezer compartment and disconnect the cooling apparatus within your fridge. Using the assumption that as you are away from your appliance and that the doors will be kept shut, the energy consumption will be much lower. Do not press the holiday button unless the fridge compartment of your Hotpoint appliance is empty as selecting this option whilst the fridge is full will result in food loss.
