Problem
Solution
The fridge doesn't work
Check that the appliance is switched on.
Check that there has not been a power outage.
Check that the plug is not faulty.
Check that the fuse has not blown.
Check that the voltage is correct for the appliance.
Are there any faults with the socket? Test the plug of your appliance by
connecting it to a socket which you are sure is
working .
The temperature inside
the appliance is not cold
enough
Check that there is not too much food in the appliance.
Check that the thermostat is set to a suitable temperature.
Check that the appliance is not placed in direct sunlight, or too near to
a heating source.
Check that the ambient temperature is within the operation limits of
the appliance.
Are the doors of the appliance opened frequently? Once the door is
opened, the humidity in the air of the room enters the appliance,
especially if the humidity levels in the room are very high. The more
frequently the door is opened in humid conditions the
more chance of the build-up of moisture.
The door is not closed completely.
The door gasket does not seal properly.
The fridge does not have the correct clearances at the sides/back.
The temperature within the
appliance is too cold
Increase the working temperature by adjusting the thermostat to a
lower setting. The highest setting should only be used as a rapid cool
setting and should only be set 2 hours before a large amount of the
food is placed in the fridge . If this is not done the temperature in the
fridge compartment could fall below 0°c as the compressor will
run continuously.
Moisture forms on the inside
or outside walls of the fridge
Hot and humid weather increases the internal rate of frost build-up.
This is normal.
Open the door less often and make sure it is always properly closed.
The out surfaces of the
appliance are wet
Condensation will from on the outside of the cooler if it operates in
moist areas, simply wipe it dry.
Smell/ odor
Check all the food and drink that is in the fridge is in date and
correctly packaged. If it isn't then it should be removed immediately
or repackaged. Check for spillages on each shelf, rack and drawer.
You may need to remove the drawers to check that no spillages have
settled underneath them. Spillages that have not been cleaned
and have been left can cause smells and unwanted odors.
The doors do not
close properly
Ensure there are no obstructions preventing door closure.
Check the door compartments and shelves are correctly in place.
Check the door seal is not warped or torn.
Check the appliance is level.
