BEFORE CALLING YOUR AFTER SALES SERVICE
PART 6.
If your fridge is not working properly, it may be a minor problem, therefore check the following.
The appliance does not operate,
Check if:
•
There is a power failure.
• The mains plug is not plugged in properly, or is loose.
• The thermostat setting is on position “
“.
• The socket is defective. To check this, plug in another appliance that you know is working
into the same socket.
The appliance performs poorly,
Check if:
• You have overloaded the appliance.
• The door is not closed properly.
• There are not enough ventilation ducts in the kitchen unit as mentioned in the installation
manual.
If there is noise:
The cooling gas which circulates in the fridge circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling
sound) even when the compressor is not running. Do not worry, this is quite normal. If you
hear different sounds, check if:
• The appliance is installed firmly as described in the installation manual.
• Objects on the appliance are vibrating.
If there is water in the lower part of the fridge,
Check if:
The drain hole for water is not clogged (use defrost drain plug to clean the drain hole).
Recommendations
• When there is no power, to prevent any damage to the compressor, you should unplug
the refrigerator. You should delay pluging in 5 – 10 minutes after power is restored.
• If you unplug the refrigerator for any reason you should wait at least 5 min to replug. This
will avoid damage to the refrigerator’s components.
• The cooling unit of your refrigerator is hidden at the rear of the appliance. Therefore,
water droplets or icing may form on the rear surface of your fridge due to the operation
of the compressor at specified intervals. This is normal, there is no need to perform a
defrosting operation unless the icing is excessive.
• If you do not intend to use your fridge for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays), turn
the thermostat to the «•» position. After defrosting, clean your fridge and leave the door
open to prevent humidity and smells.
• If the problem persists after you have followed all the instructions above, please consult
to the nearest Authorised Service Centre.
