PART 4
THINGS TO DO BEFORE CALLING THE AUTHORISED SERVICE
If the red temperature warning light is lit continuously (it means the
inner temperature is too high.);
• Check whether the lid is closed properly,
• Check whether your chest freezer is in the vicinity of any heating
source,
• Check whether there is a thick frost layer on the inner wall,
• Check whether the ventilation grid is clear.
If the compressor is running on continuously;
• Check whether the ambient temperature is over +43°C,
• Check whether the lid is opened quite frequently,
• Check whether thermostat knob is set to a cooler position more
than adequate,
• Check whether any cleaning is required for the gridded sections
located behind and on the sides of the freezer due to the air flow
inadequacy.
If the power network warning light goes off and the freezer does
not operate;
• Check whether there is any power interruption,
• Check whether the power cord is plugged into the wall socket,
• Check whether the fuse in the house has blown,
• Check whether there is any rupture on the power cord.
• If the power network light is not lit but the freeze is operating;
the light needs to be changed. Ask for assistance from the authorised
service about the issue.
If the Chest Freezer is operating tumultuously;
• Check whether the freezer contacts with the walls or any other
furniture that can cause vibration.
• Ensure that the legs of the freezer are exactly stepping on the floor.

20
If the Chest Freezer is producing odour;
• Store the foods that may produce odour in the closed containers.
• Clean inside of your freezer.
Things to do in case of power interruption
At first, learn how long the interruption will last. If it will not last
longer than 12 hours, then you can leave the foods in the chest freezer.
Within that period, never open the upper lid. If the interruption lasts
more than 12 hours and some parts of the foods have begun being
defrosted you have to utilise the foods within 24 hours (for re-freezing
after cooking).
What is condensation?
It is normal for your chest freezer to generate damp deposits within
scope of some environmental conditions if it has been placed on humid
or unventilated (such as cellar, garage) ambient (where the humidity
rate is high). The condensation can be seen in the form of water drips
in the ambient where the where the humidity rate is high.
Operation of chest freeze will not be affected by that. The only thing
you should in such a case is to clean the water drips with a soft cloth.
Call the Authorised Service if your chest freezer does not operate
despite that you have followed up the instructions indicated in the user
manual and the checking you have conducted.
Keep the lid of your chest freezer closed till the service technician is
present.
