Kelvinator refrigerator stopped working - Kelvinator 12 cu. ft. / 340 liter Chest Freezer KDC-47

Locate the Temperature Control Knob: The temperature control knob is typically located inside the freezer compartment. It allows you to adjust the temperature settings.

Understanding the Knob:
For Top Mount ™ Models: The temperature control knob is usually located in the refrigerator section. At higher altitudes (e.g., 1000 meters above sea level), set the refrigerator temperature control to one-half setting warmer than MID.

For Bottom Mount (BM) Models: Adjust the refrigerator temperature using the bottom knob.
Setting the Temperature:
Turn the knob clockwise (usually towards the "colder" side) to lower the temperature.
Turn the knob counterclockwise (towards the "warmer" side) to raise the temperature.

Adjusting the fridge compartment temperature may cause a small change in the freezer temperature.
Remember to allow some clearance around the freezer for proper ventilation.

as kelvinator use a model number to denote size I would suggest that it is a 200 ltr freezer
Call a kelvinator service repair centre and they will tell you what size it is.

yes.coils are the heart of the machine.adrian;;;

unplug unit to "reset." pull unit out from wall and blow the coils out on the back of refrigerator. if that does not work- call service man to come check freon level.

switch off your refrigerator for at least 5 hrs. than again switch it on.. if your problem is not solved that it is sure that your thermostart is not working........please replce it
