Problem Possible cause Solution
The control panel is off
and the appliance
does not operate There might be a problem with the
electric power supply to the
appliance. Check that:
• there isn't a power supply failure
• the power plug is correctly inserted in
the power socket and the two-pole
switch, if present, is in the correct
position (on)
• the electric circuit safety devices
installed in the house are fully functional
• the power supply cable is not broken
The temperature inside
the compartments is
not cold enough. There may be several causes
(see "Solutions") Check that:
• the drawers are closed correctly
• the appliance is not placed near a heat
source
• the temperature set is appropriate
• air circulation through the ventilation
grills at the bottom of the appliance is
not obstructed
There is water at the
bottom of the
refrigerator
compartment The defrost water drain is obstructed. Clean the defrost water drain hole (see
"Cleaning and maintenance").
The front edge of the
appliance is hot at the
door seal edge. This is not a fault. It is part of the
design to prevent the formation of
condensation. No solution is necessary.
What to do if…
Note:
• Gurgling, hissing and humming noises from the
refrigerating system are normal.
If the appliance is not going to be used
Disconnect the appliance from the power supply,
remove all the food, defrost and clean. Leave the
doors open enough for air to circulate inside the
compartments. This will prevent the formation of
mould and bad odours.
In case of power failures
Keep the doors of the appliance closed. In this way
the stored food will stay cold as long as possible.
