PROBLEM

POSSIBLE CAUSE

PROBABLE SOLUTION

Too much ice forming in freezer:

inside temperature setting
thermostat set on too low a
temperature.

-  Use the regulator to set a lower

cooling temperature 

 

to increase

the temperature inside the
appliance slightly;

- check that the gaskets are

providing an airtight seal: if they
are cracked, try to soften the
gasket by pulling it with one hand
and sliding your closed fingers
along the inside;

-  open the door less often and for

shorter times;

-  rise in atmospheric temperature

and humidity;

-  do not place hot food or drinks

inside the freezer.

Front of cabinet hot to the touch:

- the refrigerator is operating

normally.  Inside the cabinet there
is a surface cooling system
designed to restrict the formation
of condensation in the area where
the door gasket closes.

Doors out of alignment:

- check that the refrigerator is

levelled properly, by also adjusting
the two rear feet if necessary.
Check whether changing the
settings of the two feet improves
the alignment.
