Fault: Cause/Remedy

The appliance does not operate

after connection to the mains:

•

Check if there is power in the socket and if the appliance is

switched on.

Cooling system operates

continuously without intermittent

stoppages:

•

Ambient temperature too high.

•

Frequent opening of the door, door open too long.

•

Door not closed properly (particle between door gasket,

sagged door, check gasket sealing, etc...).

•

Excessive quantity of fresh food inserted at once.

• Refrigerator sensor (A) is crammed with fresh food. Free the

sensor and allow air to circulate around it (certain models

only).

•

Check air circulation for sufﬁ cient cooling of the compressor,

and clean the condenser.

Excessive ice formation at

the rear interior wall of the

refrigerator:

•

Frequent opening of the door, door open too long.

•

Inserting hot food in the refrigerator.

•

Food or dish is touching the rear interior panel of the

refrigerator.

•

Bad door sealing; clean or replace the gasket if dirty or

damaged.

Water dripping from the

appliance:

•

Drain outlet is clogged, drain water drips past the collection

groove.

•

Clean the clogged outlet using plastic straw.

•

Thaw thick ice deposits manually (see chapter Defrosting).

Red light is ﬂ ashing (freezer

compartment only):

•

Frequent opening of the door, door open too long.

•

Door not closed properly (particle between door gasket,

sagged door, damaged gasket, etc...).

•

Excessively long power failure.

•

Excessive quantity of fresh food inserted at once.

Difﬁ cult door opening:

•

If you attempt to open the immediately closed door of the

freezer you may experience resistance. This happens

because certain quantity of cold air escapes from the

appliance through the open door and is replaced by warm

ambient air. Cooling of such air creates negative pressure

(vacuum) and suction, which prevents easy opening of the

door. This is normalized after several minutes and you can

open the door with ease.
