ers must be dry before being placed
in the refrigerator.
• The refrigerator doors are opened
frequently.
Humidity of the room will enter
the fridge each time the doors are
opened.
Humidity increases faster if the doors
are opened frequently, especially if
the humidity of the room is high.
• There is a build-up of water droplets
on the rear wall. This is normal after
automatic defrosting (in Static Mod-
els).
The doors are not opening or closing
properly
Check if:
• There is food or packaging prevent-
ing the door from closing
• The door compartments, shelves and
drawers are placed properly
• The door gaskets are broken or torn
• Your appliance is level.
The edges of the appliance in contact
with the door joint are warm
Especially during summer (warm weath-
er), the surfaces in contact with the door
joint may become warmer during opera-
tion of the compressor. This is normal.
Important Notes:
• In the case of a power failure, or
if the appliance is unplugged and
plugged in again, the gas in the
cooling system of your refrigerator
will destabilise, causing the com-
pressor protective thermal element to
open. Your refrigerator will start to
operate normally after 5 minutes.
• If the appliance will not be used
for a long period of time (such as
during holidays), disconnect the plug.
Defrost and clean the refrigerator,
leaving the door open to prevent the
formation of mildew and odour.
• If the problem persists after you have
followed all the instructions above,
please consult the nearest Authorised
Service Centre.

tic use and for the stated purposes
