TROUBLESHOOTING AND MAINTENANCE

Trouble Shooting
Power cut
If the internal temperature of the Freezer compartment is -18℃ or less when the power returns, your food is safe. The
food in your Freezer will remain frozen for approx 16 hours with the door closed. Do not open the Freezer door more than
necessary.
The Freezer is exceptionally cold
You may have accidentally adjusted the thermostat control dial to a higher position.
The Freezer 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 Freezer is not working
Check it is plugged in and switched on. Check that the fuse in the plug has not blown. Plug
In another appliance, such as a lamp, to see if the socket is working. Leave the Freezer for 30 minutes.
Condensation appears on the outside of the Freezer
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.
Noises inside the Freezer
If you have not owned a Freezer before, you may notice that it makes some rather unusual noises. Most noises are
perfectly normal; however you should be aware of them!
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 Freezer.
HUMMING, PURRING OR PULSATING
This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.
Moving the Freezer
Location
Do not place your Freezer near a heat source, eg. Cooker, boiler or radiator. Also avoid direct sunlight in out-buildings or
sun lounges.
Leveling the Freezer
Make sure the Freezer is level. Use the rotating leveling feet at the front. If the Freezer is not level, the doors and
magnetic seal alignments will be affected and may cause your Freezer to work incorrectly.
Do not turn on the Freezer for 4 hours
After the 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.
Carefully dispose of the burnt-out light bulb immediately.

•
Short vacations: Leave the refrigerator operating during vacations of less than three weeks.

How to save energy
• Install the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct sunlight and away from heating ducts or registers.
Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven or dishwasher.
The refrigerator door should remain open only as long as necessary; do not place hot food inside the refrigerator.
•
Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as needed
•
door as soon as possible.
The refrigerator door should be properly closed to avoid increased energy consumption, and the formation of excess
•
ice and / or condensation inside.
• Constantly circulating cold air keeps the temperature homogenous inside the refrigerator. For this reason, it is
important to properly distribute the food, to facilitate the flow of air.
Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture build-up
•
inside the unit.
• Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold airvents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run longer and use more
energy. Shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling. Liners interfere with cold air
