PROBLEM WHAT

CHECK THAT THE PLUG IS WELL-INSERTED INTO THE

POWER SOCKET

CHECK THAT THERE IS POWER FROM THE MAINS – THERE
MAY BE A BLACKOUT OR YOUR FUSES MAY HAVE BLOWN.

CHECK THAT THE ELECTRONIC THERMOSTAT (REGULATOR
FOUND ON THE INSIDE WALL OF THE FRIDGE NEAR THE

TOP) IS IN THE RECOMMENDED FUNCTIONING POSITION

AND NOT ‘0’ (OFF).

CHECK THAT THE SOCKET IS SUFFICIENT AND NO ADAPTER

OR EXTENSION LEADS HAVE BEEN USED.

YOUR FRIDGE DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE
WORKING / NO APPARENT POWER

CHECK THAT THE POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE CORRESPONDS

TO THE APPLIANCE.

YOU HAVE OVERLOADED THE APPLIANCE OR FOOD HAS
BEEN PACKED TOO TIGHTLY. TAKE OUT

AND CONSUME FOOD; LOOK FOR OUT-OF-DATE FOOD

THAT CAN BE DISPOSED OF.
THE THERMOSTAT SETTING IS SET TOO LOW. SET IT
HIGHER.

ENSURE THAT THE DOOR HAS BEEN CLOSED PROPERLY.

FOR INSTANCE, THERE MAY BE A PROBLEM INSIDE THE

UNIT, KEEPING THE DOOR OPEN OR ANOTHER
FAULT, SUCH AS A BROKEN OR MISSING

DOOR SEAL.
ENSURE THAT THERE IS NO DUST ON THE CONDENSER.

YOUR FRIDGE APPEARS TO BE
PERFORMING POORLY

ENSURE THAT THERE IS ENOUGH ROOM AT THE REAR AND

SIDES OF THE UNIT.

THERE IS A NOISE

THE COOLING GAS WHICH CIRCULATES MAY MAKE

A SLIGHT NOISE (BUBBLING SOUND) EVEN WHEN
THE COMPRESSOR IS NOT RUNNING. THIS IS

NORMAL. IF THESE SOUNDS CHANGE, ENSURE:

YOUR UNIT IS WELL LEVELLED /

NOTHING IS TOUCHING THE REAR OF THE UNIT /

NO MATERIAL ON THE APPLIANCE IS VIBRATING.

NOTE: A SOUND LIKE FLOWING WATER IS PERFECTLY

NATURAL AS IT INDICATES THAT THE REFRIGERANT IS

FLOWING. THIS IS NOT A MALFUNCTION.

ADDITIONAL NOTE: SHOULD THE CABINET’S SIDE PANEL HEAT UP, THIS IS NORMAL. IT WILL

DO THIS IN SUMMER WITH A HIGH AMBIENT TEMPERATURE OR IF THE DOOR HAS BEEN

OPENED AND CLOSED FREQUENTLY. IT IS THE RESULT OF HEAT’S DISSIPATING FROM INSIDE

THE CABINET AND IS NOT DETRIMENTAL TO YOUR REFRIGERATOR IN ANY WAY.
