TROUBLESHOOTING
Check Warnings
Your fridge warns you if the temperatures for freezer are in improper levels or when a problem
occurs in the appliance.
If your freezer is not operating:
•
Are there any electrical faults?
•
Is the plug fully in the socket?
•
Is the plug fuse or the mains fuse blown?
•
Is there any fault in the socket? Examine this by plugging your freezer into a socket
which
you are sure that is working.
A rise in the temperature may be caused by:
•
Frequent door opening for long periods of time
•
Loading with large quantities of warm foods
•
High ambient temperature
•
An error with the appliances.
Check Warnings:
Warning codes are displayed in the freezer indicators if an incorrect temperature is detected in the
freezer or when a problem occurs in the appliance.
Also a warning sound is heard
The problem code and audible alarm will continue until you press the SET or MODE button. When
you pr
ess one of these buttons, the audible alarm will stop immediately and the “LF” warning will
disappear in 15 minutes. You don’t have to call your service. This condition may occur due to the
reasons given above. You can keep storing your foods in your freez
er. If the “LF” warning does not
disappear an hour after pressing the button, call your service and do not re-freeze any thawed
food. Thawed food must be eaten quickly.
