Faults and servicing
In order to ensure absolute safety always have
any necessary repairs, especially repairs to the
electrical parts of the appliance, carried out by a
qualified electrician. In the event of a breakdown,
therefore, you are advised to call either the dealer
from whom you purchased the freezer or our
after-sales service department direct.
Before approaching our after-sales service,
check whether it is not one of the pilot light bulbs
that is defective.
If, for example, the green alight goes out whilst
the freezer is operational, switch over to “Fast
Freeze”.
If the amber light comes on, the green light is
defective.
If the amber light does not come on when set to
“Fast Freeze”, but the refrigerating unit is
operational, this means that the amber light must
be replaced.
If neither of the pilot lights is on, first check that
the power supply has not been cut off (mains
plug, house fuse, overall power failure in the
supply system, etc.). If necessary, contact your
electrician immediately.
If the red light and the temperature audible alarm
come on, or the temperature inside the freezer
has risen sharply without fresh food having been
inserted or the lid having been open for any length
of time, this means that there is a fault.
Switch to “Fast Freeze”, keep your freezer closed,
and notify our after-sales service immediately
(see list of service centres). In this case, do not
carry out any repairs yourself, especially in the
electrical parts of the appliance.
When doing so, please quote
– the, type,
– E-number, and
– F-number of your appliance.
The rating plate bearing this information is located
inside the lid.
Keep the freezer closed and inform our after-
sales service whether the refrigeration system is
still operating. If the refrigeration system fails, the
cold retained in frozen food stored in a full freezer
will remain effective for a specific period of time.
This is indicated in the brochure accompanying
the appliance.
N. B! Unjustified after-.sales. service calls must
be paid for even during the guarantee period.
Important: Check regularly on the red
temperature monitoring lamp and on a
thermometer placed inside whether the storage
temperature is being maintained.
When not in use
If your freezer is to remain unused for any length
of time, it must be disconnected (unplugged) from
the electricity supply. It should then be defrosted,
cleaned thoroughly, and the lid left open to
prevent any odours from forming.
Hints on energy-saving
One or two additional hints on energy-saving are
given below:
– Do not install your freezer next to a radiator
or oven or in direct sunlight.
– Do not place any hot food in the freezer.
– Do not open the lid unnecessarily and close
it again as quickly as possible.
– Check the storage temperature in the freezer
compartment with a thermometer.
– Do not set the storage temperature lower than
-18 °C.
– Ensure good ventilation of all surfaces (sides)
of your chest freezer:
If you ever move house
If your freezer is not fully loaded, pack all the
frozen food in concentrated fashion at a few
storage levels.
Switch over to fasts freeze 24 hours before the
removal van leaves to create a low-temperature
reserve in the frozen food.
Secure the chest freezer lid against opening
during transport.
Place the chest freezer on the removal van last
so that you can unload it first and replug it into
the mains supply.
