How to properly set up a Pozis Paracels refrigerator: a detailed guide

Refrigerators Pozis Paracels are modern devices with advanced cooling functions that require proper initial setup. Incorrectly selected parameters can lead to food freezing, increased energy consumption, or even compressor failure. In this article we will analyze all the stages: from basic temperature setting to fine settings of modes Super Cool and Holiday.

A feature of the models Paracels is an intelligent system No Frost with independent control of zones. This means that the freezer and refrigerator compartments are configured separately, and sensors automatically adjust operation depending on the food load. However, “smart” technology does not eliminate the need for manual calibration to suit your needs.

Important: if you have just purchased a refrigerator, do not turn it on immediately after delivery. Let the equipment stand in a vertical position at least 4–6 hours (for models with a compressor Inverter - up to 12 hours). This is necessary to stabilize the refrigerant in the system.

1. First turn on and preparation for setup

Before you start setup, make sure that the refrigerator Pozis Paracels is connected to a grounded network and is standing on a flat surface. Distortions of more than 2° can cause incorrect operation of the doors and increased load on the compressor.

After connecting to the network, the power indicator on the control panel will light up. Wait for the first cooling cycle (usually takes 1–2 hoursbefore loading food. During this time:

• 🔌 Do not open the doors unless necessary - this disrupts the formation of a uniform temperature.
• ❄️ Check that the back wall of the refrigerator compartment is evenly covered with frost (for models without No Frost).
• 📱 Install mobile application Pozis Smart (if your model supports Wi-Fi). It will help you remotely control the temperature and receive notifications about faults.

If your refrigerator is equipped with a display, it will display the current temperature in the chambers. For models with mechanical controls (rotary controls), focus on the middle position of the handles - this corresponds. +4°C in the refrigerator compartment and –18°C in the freezer.

2. Paracels

The manufacturer recommends the following basic settings:

To change the temperature:

1. Press the button Temp (or Fridge/Freezer for separate settings).
2. Use the arrows ↑/↓ or touch buttons + / – to set the value.
3. Confirm the selection with the button OK (in some models the setting is saved automatically after 5 seconds).

If in your model yes Vacation mode (Holiday), activate it during long absence. It maintains the temperature +12°C in the refrigerator compartment, saving up to 30% of electricity.

3. Setting up additional functions

Refrigerators Pozis Paracels are equipped with several unique modes that require separate settings:

• ❄️ Super Cool: fast cooling to +2°C (useful when loading a large amount of warm products). Activates for 2 hours, then automatically turns off.
• 🍷 Wine Mode: maintains +10°C…+12°C in a separate zone for wine (available in models with Multi Air Flow).
• 🌿 Eco Mode: reduces energy consumption by 15%, but increases cooling time.
• 🔇 Silent Mode: reduces compressor noise up to 38 dB (relevant for night time).

To turn on the special mode:

1. Press the button Mode (or Function).
2. Select the desired mode using the arrows.
3. Confirm the selection. The corresponding indicator will light up on the display (for example, ❄️ for Super Cool).

Please note: only one special mode can be activated at the same time (except Eco Modewhich is compatible with others).

What to do if the mode is not activated?

If the button Mode does not respond, check:

1) Is the mode activated? child lock (Child Lock —indicator 🔒 on the display).

2) Are there any errors on the panel (codes E1, E2 indicate a malfunction of the sensors).

3) Is the refrigerator connected to a stable power source (voltage surges block special functions).

4. Calibration of sensors and diagnostics

If the temperature in the chambers does not correspond to the specified parameters (for example, on the display +4°C, but on the thermometer +8°C), calibration of the sensors is required for this:

1. Unplug the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
2. Turn it back on and immediately press the combination:

   Temp + Mode (hold for 5 seconds)

3. The calibration menu will appear on the display (CAL).Use the arrows to select the sensor (F — refrigerator compartment, Z — freezer).
4. Adjust the readings in the range ±3°C and save the changes.

After calibration wait full cooling cycle (4-6 hours) and check the temperature with an independent thermometer.

Make sure the refrigerator is empty|Use an accurate thermometer (accuracy no more than ±0.5°C)|Record the current readings of all sensors|Do not open the doors during procedures-->

If calibration does not help, malfunctions are possible:

• 🔧 Clogged capillary tube (the refrigerator runs continuously, but does not cool).
• 🔌 Problems with the control board (all indicators flash, error E4).
• ❄️ Freon leak (the compressor turns on for 5-10 seconds and turns off).

5. Energy-saving settings

Refrigerators Pozis Paracels belong to the energy efficiency class A+++, but even they can consume excess electricity if the settings are incorrect. To optimize consumption:

• 🌡️ Set the temperature in the refrigerator compartment to +5°C (instead of +4°C). This will reduce the load on the compressor by 8–12%.
• 🔄 Activate Eco Mode at night (from 23:00 to 7:00).
• 🚪 Check the door seals: if they are worn out, the refrigerator loses up to 20% cold.
• ☀️ Do not place the refrigerator next to heat sources (stove, radiator). The optimal distance is 50 cm.

For models with the function Smart Inverter adaptive mode setting is available adaptive mode:

1. Go to Settings → Energy Saving → Adaptive Cooling.
2. Select Low (low power consumption) or Balanced (balance between savings and performance).

Models Paracels 2023+ have a hidden function Night Savethat automatically lowers the temperature by 1°C at night when door opening is minimal. Activated through the service menu (buttons Light + Super Cool, hold for 8 seconds).

6. Frequent errors during setup and their consequences

Even experienced users sometimes make mistakes that lead to breakdowns or damage to products. Let's look at the most common ones:

• ❄️ Setting the minimum temperature "just in case" → Refreezing of food in the freshness zone, increased compressor wear.
• 🔥 Ignoring the mode Super Cool when loading warm products → Condensation on the walls, ice formation in No Frost-system.
• 🚫 Turning off the refrigerator for night → Risk of defrosting and spoilage of food, as well as power surges when turned on again.
• 🔧 Independent disassembly for “preventive cleaning” → Loss of warranty and risk of damage to the freon circuit.

Particularly dangerous disconnect the refrigerator from the network immediately after the cooling cycle. The compressor must “rest” at least 5 minutes, otherwise water hammer is possible - one of the most expensive breakdowns.

1) Is it level (adjustable legs should touch the floor).

2) Is the back wall of the furniture or wall touching (a gap is required 5–10 cm).

3) Is the mode turned on Super Freeze (the compressor is running at maximum).-->

7. Configuration via the Pozis Smart mobile application

For models with Wi-Fi support (Paracels Smart Series), control via the application is available. To connect:

1. Download Pozis Smart from App Store or Google Play.
2. Register an account (email and SMS confirmation will be required).
3. Click Add device and select Refrigerator.
4. Follow the instructions on the screen: turn on Wi-Fi on the refrigerator (button Network), then connect to its network (Pozis_XXXX) and enter the password from the sticker on the back wall.

The application has the following functions:

• 📊 Temperature monitoring real time with graphs for the week.
• ⚠️ Notifications on open door, temperature fluctuations or errors.
• ⚙️ Remote setup modes (Holiday, Eco).
• 🔄 Automatic software update (if available for your model).

Please note: for stable operation of the application, the refrigerator must be connected to the network 2.4 GHz (5 GHz is not supported). It is also recommended to disable the energy saving mode on the router for this device.

8. Maintenance after setup

To ensure that the refrigerator Pozis Paracels works efficiently, carry out regular maintenance:

For models with No Frost defrosting is not required, but once a year it is recommended to carry out "dry cleaning":

1. Unplug the refrigerator.
2. Take it out all products and shelves.
3. Rinse the internal surfaces with a solution of vinegar (1:1 with water).
4. Wipe dry and leave the doors open for 2 hours for ventilation.

⚠️ Attention: If your refrigerator Pozis Paracels was released before 2020, it may not support some modes (for example, Adaptive CoolingCheck). complete set in the device passport.

FAQ: Frequently asked questions about setting up Pozis Paracels

How to reset all settings to factory settings?

To reset, hold down the button Temp and Mode simultaneously for 10 seconds. The display will show rSt. After rebooting, the refrigerator will return to standard parameters: +4°C in the refrigerator compartment and –18°C in the freezer.

Why does the refrigerator constantly work and does not turn off?

Possible reasons:

1. The selected temperature mode is too low (below -20°C in the freezer chamber).
2. The door is not closed properly or the seal is damaged.
3. There are too many products in the chamber that block air circulation.
4. The temperature sensor is faulty (diagnostics required).

Try increasing the temperature by 2-3°C and check if the compressor switches off after 20-30 minutes.

Is it possible to turn off the door open sound signal?

Yes, to do this:

1. Press and hold the button Alarm (or Sound) for 5 seconds.
2. The 🔕 icon will appear on the display - this means that the signal is turned off.
3. To return the sound, repeat the action.

In some models, the signal shutdown is reset after rebooting the refrigerator.

How to adjust the temperature in the freshness zone (Fresh Zone)?

The freshness zone is adjusted separately:

1. Press the button Fresh (or 0°C).
2. Use arrows to set the value from –1°C to +1°C.
3. For storing meat and fish, select 0°C, for fruits and herbs - +1°C.

If your model does not have a separate button, the temperature in the freshness zone is tied to the main refrigerator compartment (usually 3–4°C lower).

What to do if an error code appears on the display E3?

Error E3 indicates a problem with the freezer sensor. Try:

1. Disconnect the refrigerator on 15 minutes, then turn it on again.
2. If the error remains, check whether the sensor has iced up (carefully remove the ice with a cotton swab).
3. If it appears again E3 Contact the service center - there may be a malfunction of the board or the sensor itself.
