Mitsubishi Electric L4 Glass Grande MR-L710E Questions & Answers

sure go to the fridge repair shop?

Hi. Bianca
I'm sorry I really can't help you. I think this maybe a job for Mitsubishi. Perhaps they can advise how to replace or send someone to do it for you.
I would be contacting their customer service department.
Once again sorry I'm not able to help.
God luck

Bianca, I agree with Stefe

Hi Vicky
Sorry it's taken me so long to answer Have been busy and not really checking emails. To answer your question I have a very poor sense of smell but I'm sure if there was an odour my husband would have commented. Our fridge seems to be fine.
Regards
Stef

Only two months later :) - Yes, ours seems to have a strange smell when we open the doors, some days are worse than others. I've put a small container of bicarb in there today, maybe that will help.

Hi there,
Did you manage to resolve your odour problem. I've not had my fridge 2 years and this is the third time I have a disgusting odour made worse if the doors aren't frequently opened. I am forced to apologies to visitors it is that offensive and I'm not impressed.

Hi June, I suggest you get in contact with the customer service of the shop where you bought the fridge. I am pretty sure they will answer all of your questions effectively.
Regards,
Miel

Hi June, I have only had this fridge for approx. a month. I'm not sure but I think what you're referring to is the flap on the left hand door that automatically folds back when the door is open and folds out when shut. I don't think it's a design fault but if this flap is pulled out when the door is open and you try to shut the door, it will connect with the right door and possibly do some damage. Perhaps there is a fault with yours where the flap is not folding back as it should. I would be contacting Mitsubishi and checking with them. Sorry I can't be of more help but as I mentioned I haven't had mine for very long and it seems to be working normally.
Good luck, I hope you get your problem solved.
Regards
Stefe

Gidday, i had a good look at our freezer tray and the clips that you mention on ours are on the tray itself, if it the other way round and it is the fridge itself that is broken you can ring mitsubishi support and if you tell them the model number they will have these parts, it looks a reasonably straight forward job to replace the part inside the fridge . If you look at the top of the compartment there is 4 screws that will let you take out the section that is broken and replace it . If it is the ice tray itself you should be able to purchase a new one . I suspect as they are a newish fridge you will only get the part from mitsubishi themselves, i have had a look at other parts suppliers but wasn`t able to find parts for these fridges, so just try mitsubishi direct. If you ring a repairman that`s what they will do but they will add on their fee aswell so give it a go
cheers

We had the same problem and they replaced our fridge, we are on our 3rd one now the first fridge the freezer broke then the ice tray Now the fridge lights aren't working, we will never again buy from them Mitsubishi. We didn't go through the manufacture we went back to where we brought and made it happen.

No, Raj, it doesn't but the front of the drawers are clear plastic which allows you to see what is contained. We are very happy with our fridge.

I agree. They make me think the door is always open. I've got used to them now. Did you try contacting Mitsubishi customer service.

You are correct, the depth is 76.4 cm.

the 820 measurement includes allowance for the door handles and electrical cord (as per the Specifications on the Mitsuibishi web site

He does NOT say "if left open". Listen to it again. It has an automatically closing hinge system and a damping unit coming into operation within a certain distance to closure. There is no such thing as a fridge door closing automatically "if left open", this would be unpleasant and potentially dangerous.

No he does not say "if left open" he says "the L4 features a smart door automatic closer, meaning the refrigerated doors will close by themselves when left half closed". Do you have one of these fridges? and if so what do you not like about it? katrina

Yes I do have the L4 Grande. It is the best french door fridge in the world.

Make sure you are using a digital thermometer (Jaycar sells them). Also depending on where you place it you will get slightly different readings, as the bottom shelves are colder as cold air stays lower. After you have loaded your groceries use "Super-Cool Freezing" function, which gives a burst of cold. Also I set it at about 1.0 - 2.0 degrees and it is perfect.

had the fridge for 10 days now .Coldest it has got down to is 5.1 degrees. Have it set at .4 degrees

Set it at 1 or 2 or 3 degrees...too easy

The specs show fridge with handles on is 805mm. So you have 5mm to play with. As a backup, be prepared to take your entrance door off (easily done with a cordless). In extremely tight situations the fridge handles wil also need to come off (again easy). Always accurately measure your entrance and take your tape measure to the store and measure the fridge.It's also a good idea to mention to the salesperson at time of purchase so delivery guys can expect a possible delay and allow extra time.

If your door off is not enough, the handles cannot be removed. You need to remove the doors themselves. This is very easily done but you need to be careful of the wiring that crosses inside the cover of the top left hand hinge. Unplug the loom, remove doors, reattach doors, plug in loom and job is done. Make sure fridge is *level* before you reattach to make it easier to bet doors square again. We had to do this as hall door was narrower than front door and all went fine.

Bomber, the fridge door handles do come off. You will be need to take the screw covers off. The covers are a small square shape at the side base of the door handles (total of 8 covers). I was shown this by the guy at 2nds World and that's how I was able to get the fridge into the house.

As per the response from Mitsubishi, the doors don't close automatically. However, they do sound an alarm if left open too long or not properly closed. The door seals are very good on all four doors.

Hi there, my instruction book says that they do, but we have set the fridge up so that it is level so they they don't unfortunately. . I queried Harvey Norman where we bought it and they told me that if you have the front tilted slightly higher than the back, the doors will close automaticly. hope this helps.
