TROUBLE SHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE
Trouble Shooting
Power cut
Do not open the Fridge door more than necessary.
The Fridge is exceptionally cold
You may have accidentally adjusted the thermostat control dial to a higher position.
The Fridge is exceptionally warm
The compressor may not be working. Turn the thermostat control dial to the maximum
setting and wait a few minutes. If there is no humming noise, it is not working. Contact the
local store where your purchase was made.
The Fridge is not working
Check it is plugged in and switched on. Check that the fuse in the plug has not blown.
The Fridge should be placed in a well ventilated room with an ambient temperature of
between 16℃and 38℃. Leave the Fridge for 30 minutes.
Condensation appears on the outside of the Fridge
This may be due to a change in the room temperature. Wipe off any residue of moisture.
If the problem continues contact the local store where your purchase was made.
GURGLING, WHOOSHING
These noises are caused by the circulation of the refrigerant liquid in the cooling system. It
has become more pronounced since the introduction of CFC free gases. This is not a fault
and will not affect the performance of your Fridge.
HUMMING, PURRING OR PULSATING
This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.
Moving the Fridge/Freezer
Location
Do not place your Fridge/Freezer near a heat source, eg. Cooker, boiler or radiator. Also
avoid direct sunlight in out-buildings or sun lounges.
Leveling the Fridge/Freezer
Make sure the Fridge/Freezer is level. Use the rotating leveling feet at the front. If the
Fridge/Freezer is not level, the doors and magnetic seal alignments will be affected and
may cause your Fridge/Freezer to work incorrectly.
Do not turn on the Fridge/Freezer for 4 hours
After the Fridge/Freezer is in place it needs to be left for 4 hours. This allows time for the
coolant to settle.
Installation
Don’t cover or block the vents or grilles of your appliance.
Vacation Time
Turn off the refrigerator first and then unplug the unit from the wall outlet.
Remove all the food.
