. . . the frozen food is thawing
because the freezer is too warm.
^
Is the room temperature lower than
the ambient temperature for which
the appliance is designed?
If so, raise the temperature of the room.
Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the cooling system to switch
off for too long, causing the freezer to
become too warm.
. . . food has frozen together.
Use a blunt instrument, e.g. a spoon
handle or plastic scraper, to prise it
apart carefully.
. . . the alarm sounds and the alarm
off sensor is flashing.
One of the sections is too warm,
because
^
the door has been opened too
frequently, or large amounts of fresh
food have been put in at once for
freezing.
^
the ventilation gaps are blocked.
Once the problem has been resolved
and the relevant section has cooled
down sufficiently, the alarm indicator
will go out and the alarm will stop.
. . . bars light up in the temperature
display.
Check the temperature displays about
6 hours after switching on the

^
Touch the alarm off sensor whilst "
nA
"
is lit up in the display.
The temperature display will show the
warmest temperature recorded in the
freezer section during the power cut.
Depending on the temperature
displayed, you should check the
condition of food in the freezer. If it has
defrosted or started to defrost, check
that it is still safe to use and if so use it
as soon as possible. Defrosted food
may only be re-frozen after it has been
cooked.
The warmest temperature will show in
the display for about 1 minute. The
display will then revert to showing the
actual current temperature in the
freezer section.
