•
Is the automatic ice maker ON/OFF button set
to ON?
•
Make sure the lever of the automatic ice maker,
inside the freezer compartment, is not turned to
OFF, i.e. in the horizontal position (on some
models).
•
Is the water turned on? Is water getting to the
automatic ice maker?
•
Is there a water filter installed on the appliance
(on some models)? This filter may be clogged or
installed incorrectly. First, check the filter
installation instructions to ensure that the filter
was installed correctly and is not clogged. If
installation or clogging is not a problem, call a
qualified person or a technician.
If there is water in the defrost pan:
•
This is normal in hot, damp weather. The pan can
even be half full. Make sure the appliance is level
so that the water does not overflow
If the edges of the appliance cabinet, which
come in contact with the door seal, are warm
to the touch:
•
This is normal in hot weather and when the
compressor is running.
If the light does not work:
•
Have you checked the protection devices and
fuses of the electrical system in your home?
•
Is the power cable plugged into a live socket with
the proper voltage?
•
Has the light bulb burnt out?
In the case of burnt-out bulbs:
1.
Always unplug the appliance from the mains.
2.
See chapter “Maintenance and Cleaning”.
If the motor seems to run too much:
•
Is the condenser free of dust and fluff?
•
Are the doors properly closed?
•
Are the door seals properly fitted?
•
On hot days or if the room is warm, the motor
naturally runs longer.
•
If the appliance door has been left open for a
while or if large amounts of food have been
stored, the motor will run longer in order to cool
down the interior of the appliance.
•
Motor running time depends on different things:
number of door openings, amount of food
stored, temperature of the room, setting of the
temperature controls.
If the appliance temperature is too high:
•
Are the appliance controls correctly set?
•
Has a large amount of food been added to the
appliance?
•
Check that the doors are not opened too often.
•
Check that the doors close properly.
•
Make sure that air flow vents inside the
compartment are not blocked, as this prevents
the circulation of cold air.
If there is moisture build-up:
•
Make sure that air flow vents inside the
compartment are not blocked, as this prevents
the circulation of air.
•
Make sure that the food is properly packaged.
Dry any dampness on food containers before
placing them in the appliance.
•
Check that the doors are not opened too often.
When the door is opened, humidity from the
room air enters the appliance. The more often
the door is opened, the faster humidity builds up,
especially when the room itself is very humid.
•
If the room is very humid, it is normal for
moisture to build up inside the refrigerator.
If the doors do not open and close properly:
•
Check that food packages are not blocking the
door.
•
Check that the internal parts or automatic ice
maker are not out of position.
•
Check that the door seals are not dirty or sticky.
•
Ensure the appliance is level.
