Question from steven: Asked on 11/06/2026 How easy is it to change the freezer door from left to right opening ?
Hi, Yes, the electriQ 272L Frost Free Upright Freezer (eiQFS185FZ) has a reversible door, allowing it to open from either the left or right-hand side. The user manual confirms the door can be changed by transferring the hinges and fittings to the opposite side using basic tools such as a screwdriver and spanner, and it is recommended to do this during installation with two people due to the weight of the door.
Thank you.
Question from Deborah: Asked on 29/05/2026 Does this model feature an alarm, that sounds if the door is left open?.
Hi, Yes, this model does include a door alarm function. The user manual confirms a door alarm button as part of the control panel, and it also refers to alarm conditions within the troubleshooting section. If the door is not properly closed or there is a related issue, the appliance will provide an alert through its built-in alarm system to notify the user.
Thank you.
Question from Mary: Asked on 20/05/2026 how much clearance do you need down the sides if putting in to a pantry.
Hi, For installation in a pantry, allow a minimum of 10 cm clearance on both sides and 10 cm above the appliance, with up to 7.5 cm at the rear to ensure adequate airflow and heat dissipation. The appliance is freestanding only and should not be tightly enclosed or built in, as sufficient ventilation is required for safe and efficient operation.
Thank you.
Question from Sindy: Asked on 05/05/2026 Hi,Can the freezer be used straight ?if you take my old freezer i will have to put all my frozen food in new one .
Hi Sindy,You can switch the freezer on straight away, but you should leave it running empty for several hours (ideally overnight) until it reaches -18°C before putting your frozen food inside, otherwise it may start to thaw.Thanks!
Question from Sindy: Asked on 05/05/2026 Hi,can the freezer be used straight away ?
Hi Sindy,No, it shouldn’t be used straight away. You need to keep the freezer upright for at least 4–6 hours after delivery (or up to 24 hours if it was transported on its side), then switch it on and let it run empty for a few hours until it reaches the correct temperature before putting any food inside.Thanks!
Question from Derrick: Asked on 02/04/2026 Suitable for outbuilding
Hi, This freezer is designed for use in standard indoor conditions and is not suitable for use in unheated outbuildings or garages. It requires a stable ambient temperature to operate correctly, and if the surrounding temperature drops too low, performance may be affected and the appliance may not function as intended.
Thank you.
Question from Sharron: Asked on 27/03/2026 can this go in a garage
Hi, This freezer is not suitable for use in unheated garages or outbuildings. It is designed to operate within an ambient temperature range of 10°C to 43°C. If the surrounding temperature drops below 10°C, the appliance may not function correctly and may fail to maintain the required freezing temperature, which could affect food safety.
Thank you.
Question from Frances: Asked on 25/01/2026 Hi- which way does the door open - handle on right open to left?
Hi Frances,If the handle is on the right, the door hinges will be on the left, so the freezer door will open from right to left; the door is reversible, so you can switch the hinges and handle to make it open the opposite way if needed.Thanks!
