Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall 

As long as the defrost water runs to the channel and through the opening to the 
drain pan on the compressor, automatic defrosting of the appliance is assured.  In 
case the ice formation on the inner back wall is increased (1/8”), ice should be 
manually defrosted. 
Set the thermostat knob to the STOP position and leave the door open.  Never use 
electric devices for defrosting and do not scrape the ice or frost layer with sharp 
objects.  After completed defrosting, turn the knob to desired position and close 
the freezer door. 
The cause of increased ice formation may be one of the following reasons: 

-

 

The door does not seal well (clean the gasket if it is contaminated, 
or replace it if it is damaged). 

-

 

The door was frequently opened or it was left opened for too long. 

-

 

The food stored in the freezer was warm. 

 

Noise 

The c

ooling in the freezer is enabled by the compressor, this produces noise.  

How noisy the appliance is depends on where it is placed, how it’s used and how 
old the appliance is. 

 

During the operation of the compressor, a liquid noise is heard and when 
the compressor is not operating a refrigerant flow is heard. This is a 
normal condition and it has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the 
appliance.

 

 

Sometimes unusual and strong noises occur which is rather unusual for the 
appliance. This noise is often a consequence of inadequate placing.  To 
avoid the noise make sure the appliance is placed and leveled firmly on a 
solid base.  Make sure the appliance is not touching the wall or kitchen 
units standing next to it.  And always make sure you check the accessories 
in the interior of the appliance; they should be placed correctly in their 
positions

 

 

Before Calling for Service
