Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the cooling system to switch
off for too long causing the freezer
section to become too warm.
. . . food has frozen together.
Use a blunt instrument, e.g. a spoon
handle or plastic scraper, to prise it
apart carefully.
. . . there is a thick layer of ice in the
freezer section.
^
Check whether the freezer section
door closes properly.
^
Defrost and then clean the freezer
section.
Too thick a layer of ice reduces
efficiency and increases energy
consumption.
. . . the interior light in the
refrigerator section is not working.
^
Has the contact switch become
stuck?
^
Make sure that the temperature
selector is not pointing to the "0"
position.
If it is not pointing to the "0" position,
the lamp is defective:
^
Disconnect the appliance from the
mains. Switch off at the wall and
withdraw the plug from the socket, or
disconnect the mains fuse or remove
the screw-out fuse in countries where
this is applicable.
^
Press the sides of the lamp cover
inwards (1), disengage the cover (2)
and unclip it at the rear.
^
Replace the lamp.
Lamp specification:
220 - 240 V, max. 25 W, E 14 fitting.
^
Screw the new lamp into the
connection. Ensure it goes in
correctly.
^
Replace the cover by clipping it in at
the rear and then pressing it in at the
sides.
