• The appliance comes with a motor protection control ( see Start-up and use).
• The doors do not close properly or the seals are damaged.
• The doors are opened too frequently.
• The TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is not in the correct position
• The refrigerator or the freezer have been over-filled.
• The TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is not in the correct position.
• The door is not closed properly or is continuously opened.
• The outside ambient temperature is very high.
• The appliance has not been installed on a level surface ( see Installation).
• The appliance has been installed between cabinets that vibrate and

of condensation on certain parts of the product.
