• Do not forget to clean also the defrost water
receptacle above the refrigerator
compressor (do not remove the receptacle).
After cleaning, connect the appliance to
power supply and reload the packages.
Switch Off the Appliance When
Not In Use
If you do not intend to use the appliance for a
longer period, set the thermostat knob to the
STOP (0) position, disconnect the power
supply, take out the foods and defrost and
clean the appliance. Leave the door slightly
open.
Trouble-Shooting Guide
During the service, you can come across
some troubles that in most cases result from
improper handling of the appliance and can
easy be eliminated.
The Appliance Fails to Operate After
Connecting to the Mains Supply
• Check the supply in the outlet socket and
make sure the appliance is switched on
(thermostat knob in operating position).
Continuous Operation of the Cooling
System
• The door was frequently opened or it was
left opened for too long;
• The door is not properly closed (the door
may sag, the gasket may be polluted or
damaged);
• Perhaps you have overloaded the appliance
with fresh foods;
• The reason may be inadequate ventilation
of the compressor and condenser (assure
adequate air circulation and wipe off the
condenser);
Ice Formation on the Inner Rear
Wall
As long as the defrost water runs to the
channel and through the outlet to the drain
pan on the compressor, automatic defrosting
of the appliance is assured.
In case the ice formation on the inner back
wall is increased (3-5 mm), ice should be
manually defrosted.
Set the thermostat knob to STOP (0) position
and leave the door open. Never use electric
devices for defrosting and do not scrape the
ice or frost layer with sharp objects.
After completed defrosting, turn the knob to
desired position and close the refrigerator
door.
The cause of increased ice formation may be
one of the following:
− the door does not seal well (clean the
gasket if it is contaminated, or replace it if
it is damaged);
− the door was frequently opened or it was
left opened for too long;
− the food stored in the refrigerator was
warm;
− the food or dish is touching the inner back
wall.
Water is Leaking From the
Refrigerator
In case the discharge water outlet is clogged,
or the defrost water drips over the channel,
water leaks from the refrigerator.
• Clean the clogged outlet, for example with a
plastic straw.
• Manually defrost the increased ice layer.
See Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall.
