This document serves as a comprehensive "Use & Care Guide" for the Thermador T36IT902NP fridge-freezer, providing detailed instructions for its operation, maintenance, and troubleshooting. The guide is structured to assist users in understanding and maximizing the appliance's features, ensuring longevity and optimal performance.
The Thermador T36IT902NP is a 3-door fridge-freezer designed for cooling and freezing food, as well as making ice. It features separate compartments for refrigeration and freezing, each with adjustable temperature settings. The appliance incorporates a fully automatic NoFrost system in the freezer compartment, eliminating the need for manual defrosting. It also includes an ice maker with an ice cube bin and a large frozen food bin. A unique aspect of this model is its automatic door opening function, which can be configured for either "Push-to-open" or "Pull-to-open" systems, providing convenience in handle-free installations. The appliance is Wi-Fi-capable and can be remotely controlled via the Home Connect app, allowing for smart integration into a home network. It also offers a "Sabbath mode" that switches off non-essential functions for observance.
The appliance is operated via touch fields on a control panel, which displays the set temperatures for both the refrigerator and freezer compartments in either °C or °F. The "Settings" menu provides access to a wide array of customizable options, including appliance settings, cleaning mode, vacation mode, ice cube production control, water filter counter reset, Eco mode, self-test, and Sabbath mode.
For the refrigerator compartment, recommended temperatures are around +39 °F (+4 °C), with a range of +36 °F (+2 °C) to +46 °F (+8 °C). It includes a vegetable container with a humidity controller, allowing users to adjust humidity levels for optimal storage of fresh fruits and vegetables. The "Super cooling" function rapidly cools the refrigerator compartment, useful for quickly chilling drinks or preparing for large quantities of food.
The freezer compartment's recommended temperature is 0 °F (-18 °C), with an adjustable range of -11 °F (-24 °C) to +7 °F (-14 °C). The "Super freezing" function is available for rapid freezing of fresh food, recommended 4-6 hours before freezing 2 kg or more of food. The ice maker automatically produces ice cubes once the set temperature is reached, stopping when the ice cube container is full. Users are advised to discard the first 30-40 ice cubes for hygiene.
The "Vacation mode" sets the refrigerator compartment to +57 °F (+14 °C) and deactivates ice cube production, saving energy during prolonged absences. The "Eco mode" also optimizes energy consumption by setting specific temperatures for both compartments.
The automatic door opening feature can be customized for opening force and duration. The appliance also features a "Theater mode" where the interior light slowly brightens upon opening and dims upon closing.
Regular maintenance is crucial for the appliance's performance. The guide provides instructions for cleaning the appliance interior using a soft cloth, lukewarm water, and pH-neutral washing-up liquid, emphasizing care to prevent water from entering the light or drainage hole. Stainless steel surfaces require specific cleaning agents and cloths, with cleaning recommended in the direction of the surface structure to avoid scratches.
The odor filter should be changed when unpleasant odors persist, with replacement filters available from customer service. Instructions for opening the filter holder with a slotted screwdriver and replacing the filter are provided.
The water filter needs to be changed at least every 6 months, or sooner if the ice tastes stale. The guide details the process of exchanging the water filter or replacing it with a bypass cartridge, including resetting the water filter counter. It also notes that the appliance can be used without a water filter by installing a bypass cartridge and switching off the water filter counter.
The appliance includes a self-test program to diagnose faults, which can be accessed through the "Settings" menu. This feature helps users identify issues before contacting customer service. The guide also provides a troubleshooting table for common faults, such as temperature discrepancies, display issues, refrigeration unit problems, and door opening difficulties, along with suggested solutions.
For Home Connect functionality, the appliance checks for software updates regularly, and users can install these updates through the "Home network" menu. Signal strength verification and improvement tips are also provided to ensure a stable connection. In case of connection problems or re-registration needs, network settings can be deleted and re-setup.
