» The appliance does not work at all
Check that the appliance is plugged in and that the power is on.
Check that the fuse in the plug is intact.
» The appliance is noisy
Check that the appliance is level.
Check that the appliance is not touching nearby items of furniture or other objects.
“Whooshing” and “gurgling” noises caused by the refrigeration system are perfectly normal and cannot be
avoided.
»The appliance is not meeting the correct temperature
Check that the door is shutting and sealing correctly.
Check that the internal fan is working.
Check that the appliance is not too close to a heat source (such as a radiator).
Check that the appliance is not overloaded with products. The appliance requires space between stored
items in order for the air to circulate correctly.
Check that there has not been a sudden rise or fall in room temperature. The minimum and maximum
ambient operating temperatures for your appliance are listed in the table on page 3
Check that the appliance is positioned correctly. It should be positioned away from direct sunlight. There
should be a minimum of 50mm clearance around the sides, 25mm at the top and 75mm of clearance at
the back to allow free circulation of air.

Disposal
If you are disposing of an old cabinet, break off any latches and hinges, as a safe guard against small
children trapping themselves inside.
The refrigerant used in your appliance and the insulation materials require special disposal procedures in
accordance with the current local regulations and laws.
Ensure that none of the pipes on the back of the appliance are damaged prior to disposal.
Details of the refrigerant can be found on the data plate.
