Malfunctions can occur in all electrical appliances. This does not necessarily mean
there is a defect in the appliance. For this reason, check the tables to see if you can
correct the malfunction.
WARNING
Risk of electric shock in case of improper repair!
■ Never try to repair a defective or suspected defective appliance yourself. This could
endanger yourself and subsequent users. Only authorised specialists may carry out
repairs.
■ If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by the manufacturer, its service
agent or similarly qualified persons in order to avoid a hazard.

Solutions, tips, explanations
Check the socket with another appliance.
Check the fuse.
Check the tightness of the mains plug.
Even in the event of a mains failure, your fro-
zen food may remain sufficiently cold for some
time. The maximum storage time in the event
of a fault is shown on the appliance's type
plate.
Switch on the fridge (see "Switching the fridge
back on again" on page EN-15).
Further cooling not required. When the inside
temperature rises, the compressor automati-
cally switches on.
Select a higher setting (see "Changing the
temperature in the fridge" on page EN-14).
Select a lower setting (see "Changing the tem-
perature in the fridge" on page EN-14).
See "Checking and cleaning door seals" from
page EN-22.
Increase the distance or place an insulating
plate between the appliances.
Only store cooled foods.
Do not exceed the maximum freezing capacity.
The maximum freezing capacity in the event of
