Power outage
In case of power failure the foods will stay frozen in the freezer for a number of hours. In case of power failure
limit opening the door to a minimum and do not put in fresh (unfrozen) foods.
Long-term shutdown
If you do not intend to use the freezer for a longer period of time, proceed as follows:
•
Pull the plug out of the outlet to disconnect the freezer from the power supply.
•
Clean and dry the interior of the freezer as described in the section „Cleaning of the freezer“.
•
Leave the freezer door open to prevent unpleasant odours forming in the unused freezer.
Do not replace the LED lighting yourself. Contact the service representatives.
Power saving tips
•
Place the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated location, away from direct sunlight and heat sources
(radiators, cookers). If necessary use a suitable insulation board.
•
Place beverages in the freezer only after they cool down.
•
When putting in foods, limit the time you open the freezer door to a minimum.
•
Keep the door seal clean. Replace a damaged door seal.
TROUBLESHOOTING
You can solve a number of common problems on your own. If the freezer is not working properly, check the
following points before calling a service technician:
The freezer does not work
•
The power cord is disconnected.
•
The main house breaker is off .
•
The thermostat is not set to the desired cooling temperature.
•
The electrical outlet is not under voltage. Test the functionality of the outlet by plugging in another
appliance.
Odour
•
Put the aromatic foods in a well sealed container.
•
Check, if some of the foods are not spoiled or mouldy.
•
Clean regularly the interior of the freezer.
The compressor runs too long
•
It is usual that in the summer month with high ambient temperatures the compressor runs for longer time.
•
Do not place in the freezer a great quantity of fresh foods at once.
•
Place in the freezer only cold foods.
•
Opening the door too frequently.
•
Strong layer of ice.

Freezer door cannot be closed securely
•
Food packaging is caught between the door and the seal of the freezer.
•
Too many foods in the freezer.
•
The freezer is tilted.
Noisy freezer
The circulation of the cooling medium makes some noise (gurgling sounds), even if the compressor is not
running. This is entirely normal and does not present a problem. A clicking noise caused by the solenoid or
electrical switch is normal and not a problem. In case of hearing other noises, check the following:
•
Check if the freezer is in horizontal position.
•
Check if it is not touching other devices or kitchen equipment.
•
Check if the interior of the freezer does not vibrate.
