Noisy during operation - see the “noises during operation”
section
The compressor starts to function too
often or functions continuously:
- insufficient cooling of the
compressor and the condenser:
- increase in surrounding
temperature;
- frequent or prolonged door
opening;
- freezer loaded with too many fresh
foods
- check that the back of the freezer
is properly ventilated as indicated
in section “4.1 Choice of location”
and that the condenser is not too
dirty;
- freeze less food in one go;
The compressor does not start up
(the appliance is connected but is not
working and voltage indicator for the
electricity supply is not lit up):
- temperature control set at “ ”.
- supply cable not connected to the
electricity supply;
- main switch upstream of the
power outlet is positioned on “off”.
- socket not providing any
electricity.
- connect the supply cable;
- set the main switch to “ON”
- contact your electricity supply
company
Insufficient cooling: - internal temperature control set
too low (corresponds to a higher
temperature inside the freezer);
- frequent or prolonged door
opening;
- the door does not close properly
- the door does not close
hermetically;
- increase in surrounding
temperature.
- Set the selector to a higher
setting.
- open the door less frequently and
for as little time as possible;
- check that the food packages are
arranged properly in the drawers/
on the shelves and are not
preventing the door from closing
properly; also check that the fridge
freezer is properly level on the
floor;
- check that the seal is closing
properly and is not damaged.
Problems opening the door
immediately after it has been closed:
- if you try to reopen the door
immediately after it has been
closed, you will need to exert
considerable force. This is due to
the low pressure created by the
cooling of the warm air which has
entered the freezer.
