Mitsubishi Electric L4 Glass Grande 710L French Door Questions & Answers (page 3 of 4)

I would say this is not normal.
What is the production date of your fridge?

Hi Sally,

We have not had this issue at all in 4weeks of use.

Raj

Thanks Raj and Steve. I don't know the production date.
Before this fridge I had lg and never had this problem. I would say it a problem because all the food that touch the back wall gets wet.
Moreover the fridge temperature stays more than 5. Specially when I put the groceries in it takes hours to cool down. Even when I use the rapid cool function.
I want to know if I select from the thermostat temp 1 should it be 1 degrees inside because my fridge temp has never gone that low. Normally during the day it stays more than 8.

You can remove the the ice tray swirly things (so you can refill them with water), but unless you remove the ice drawer I'm not sure just removing the trays gives you that much more space -- unless that's what you meant.

The ice cube thing is a structure of three ice cube trays that you take out and fill up on the sink. There's no plumbing. Once the ice cubes are made you can swivel the trays and that empties the ice cubes into the ice cube drawer below.

No it doesn't. this is one of the reasons we bought it.As Banjo said it has 3 swivel ice trays and a good size tray to tip into.

Hi Vanessa, i think you should contact the manufacturer about these questions, regards Tony

I too would love the dimensions for this fridge minus the doors.

Hi Nathan, I found the answer to my question and yours at /p/mitsubishi-mr-l710e-l4-grande.html where K Sandy of Auckland posted,
"At delivery had to take the door handles off (easy unscrew with cordless drill) due to narrow house entrance, but that was only a minor issue as i had to have this fridge no matter what. With the handles off it was 764mm, doorway was 780mm, no problem."

We bought the fridge last Thursday and worrying about getting it in the house cost me some sleep last night. Fridge arrived today Saturday and with help from number one son we had to remove my house front door and screen door plus the four fridge doors. Probably and hour all up to take off and refit. Fridge is in and wife and I are loving it already.

Store removed door handles to fit through our door. I had to remove door trims also. Asked about removing doors and store said that would be troublesome because of the electricals from doors to main body of fridge.

I have the same problem, I have applied there -2 degree offset as they told me, had the service bloke out and they told me there was no problem .
I think there is a fault in these fridges the cut back in temp is to high food is going off quicker temperature is 60% of the time above 5 degrees when you use the fridge.
I have worked out how to use the fridge.
Leave the door shut and don't put anything warm in it and it works great!

i worked out that if i turn it off, put it outside turn it round 3 times, then put my 10 year old bar fridge in the kitchen and use that it works just fine

I don't know. I'm just apurchaser like you. Ask your salesperson

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.

Sorry, Sir/Madam. This question should be asked of Mitsubishi as we are customers like yourselves and not retailers.

Our L4 is next to a wall too (on the left side as you are looking at it) and I was concerned as to whether the doors be able to be opened properly and still be able to slide all the drawers on the left hand side of the fridge and freezer out properly. I am happy to report we don't have any problems.

The handles are slightly recessed so stick out less than you think so the doors can easily be opened at a right angle which leaves room for the drawers to move in an out. Most of the drawer movement in the fridge is actually in the fridge itself as they are set quite a way back due to the depth of the shelves on the inside of the door. The freezer drawers can move out ok too. As long as you can open them a degree or two more than a right angle you are ok (our 5cm gap on the left enables it to do that).

We have installed a door stop on the wall though to make sure that the door handle doesn't hit the wall on the freezer when it is opened (just on the skirting board). I looked at a lot of fridges and there were very few that enabled such a tight ability to open. Lots of others you had to open way past a right angle to be able to pull out the drawers.

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

Hi, the fridge width is 950 cm plus a minimum space of 30mm each side is needed to dissipate heat. So you need a total fridge space of 101 cm.

Sorry I meant to write width is 950mm (not cm).

Hi Bambi, fridge depth is 82.4 cm plus about another 50cm with the widest size door open at 90 degrees.. So if you have a narrow kitchen you will need 132.4 cm total depth before the doors touch anything.

"Install the refrigerator at: a place with at least 3cm of space beside the left and right of the refrigerator, 10cm of space from the top and 6cm from the back." This is from the User Manual above.

Be sure to buy the new model (EG) with the inverter for more precise temperature control.

Dimensions are: Width 950mm, Height 1820mm, Depth 764mm.

Your fridge space will need to be as minimum: 101 cm wide, 192 cm high and regarding the depth most fridges protrude past the cabinets anyway unless you go for completely flush look. If flush, then you will need minimum 82.4 cm deep. If not flush fridge will protrude by 12.4 cm, which is reasonable. Hope this helps.

Thanx K. Sandy! That really helps us to make the space adjustments for the fridge space as I really like this fridge and want one un my new house :) thankyou for your help!

There is no inverter in this model. The new model EG has the inverter.

In an “on” “off” cycle of a regular refrigerator, inside temperature varies throughout. But in case of inverter technology, temperature is more stable.The amount of noise made by the refrigerator is much less in refrigerators with inverter technology as compared to the regular ones. Energy or electricity consumption is also much less when the temperature stabilizes.

I was shown how to remove the handles by the staff at 2nds World Auburn. Use your finger nail to take the screw covers off, they are the black plastic part at the base of the handles ...they are a clip. The easiest way to take the clip off is to put your finger nail in the groove and the clip will pop out...then remove the screws...too easy.

Also, when you locate the thin groove on the black plastic, the smaller side will pop out to the side. As an example, open the left door put your finger nail in the groove with downward pressure and the clip will come out to the right. The larger plastic part will not move only the clip will pop out.As mentioned the clip is on the thin side of the groove.The groove is actually seperating the non removable part from the removable part which is the clip.

Thanks for replying back K. Sandy, I do understand that need to undo clips where is grooves but main concern is the clips can snap off(pins broke off) looks too thin.
