TROUBLESHOOTING
Defective operation of the appliance is not always due to a technical fault but is often caused by
incorrect installation or use. To avoid unnecessary technical assistance and relative expenses we
recommend the following procedures.
1. Internal temperature is not cool enough.
Check:
- Make sure that the door closes properly;
- Make sure that the thermostat setting is correct;
- Make sure that the refrigerator is not positioned close to heat sources;
- Make sure that air can circulate freely at the rear of the appliance;
- Make sure that the condenser is not blocked.
2. Internal temperature is too low
Check:
- Make sure that the thermostat setting is correct.
3. Excessive appliance noise level
Check:
- Make sure that the appliance is leveled correctly.
4. Appliance operation failure
Check:
- Make sure that the thermostat is not set to“0”;
- Make sure that the power supply is not disconnected;
- Make sure that the plug is inserted correctly into the mains socket;
- Make sure that the automatic cut-out on the mains line has not tripped or that the fuse has not
broken;
- Make sure that the power cable is not faulty.
5. Internal lamp does not work
Check:
- That the appliance is switched on. Otherwise disconnect the plug from the mains socket, remove
the protection grille from the thermostat unit and check that the bulb is screwed correctly.
Replace the lamp with a new one (10W max.) that has the same voltage as that indicated on the
data plate on the unit.
6. Presence of water at the base of the refrigerator
Check:
- Make sure that the water drain outlet at the rear is not obstructed. Clean it if necessary.
