TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem: The fridge doesn’t work.
Solution:
- Check that the appliance is switched on.
- Check that there has not been a power cut.
- Check that the plug is not faulty.
- Check that the fuse has not blown.
- Check that the voltage is correct for the appliance.
- Are there any faults with the socket? For this purpose, try the plug
of your appliance by connecting it to a socket which you are sure is
working.
Problem: The temperature inside the appliance is not cold enough.
Solution:
- Check that there is not too much food in the appliance.
- Check that the thermostat is set to a suitable temperature.
- Check that the appliance is not placed in direct sunlight, or too near to
a heating source.
- Check that the ambient temperature is within the operation limits of the
appliance.
- Are the doors of the appliance opened frequently? Once the door is
opened, the humidity found in the air in the room enters the appliance,
especially if the humidity levels in the room are very high. The more
frequently the
door is opened in humid conditions the more chance of the build up of
moisture.
- The door is not closed completely.
- The door gasket does not seal properly.
- The cooler does not have the correct clearances at the sides/back.
Problem: The temperature within the appliance is too cold.
Solution:
- Increase the working temperature by adjusting the thermostat to
a lower setting. The highest setting should only be used as a rapid
cool setting and should only be set 2 hours before a large amount of
food is placed in the fridge. If this is not done the temperature in the
fridge compartment could fall below 0°C as the compressor will run
continuously.
