7 BEFORE CALLING AFTER-

SALES SERVICE

If your refrigerator is not working properly, there may be a minor problem. Check the following.

The appliance does not operate

Check if:

• There is power

• The mains is connected

• The thermostat setting is on the “•” position

• The socket is defective. To check this, plug another working appliance into the same socket.

The appliance performs poorly

Check if:

• The appliance is overloaded

• The doors are closed properly

• There is any dust on the condenser

• There is enough space near the rear and side walls.

The appliance is noisy

The cooling gas which circulates in the refrigerator circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling sound) even when the compressor is not running. Do not worry, this is normal. If you hear a different sound, check whether:

• The appliance is level

• Anything is touching the rear of the appliance

• Objects in the appliance are vibrating.

There is water in the lower part of the refrigerator

Check if:

The drain hole for the water is not clogged

(use defrost drain plug to clean the drain hole).

Recommendations

• If the appliance is switched off or unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before plugging the appliance in or restarting it in order to prevent damage to the compressor.

• The cooling unit of your refrigerator is located at the rear of the appliance.

Therefore, water droplets or ice may form on the rear surface of your fridge due to the operation of the compressor at specified intervals. This is normal, there is no need to perform a defrosting operation unless there is excessive ice.

• If you do not intend to use your fridge for a long period of time (such as during the summer holidays), set the thermostat to

“•” position, defrost and clean your fridge, leaving the door open to prevent the formation of mildew and odour.

• If a problem persists after you have followed all the above instructions, please consult the nearest authorised service centre.

• The appliance you have purchased is designed for domestic use only. It is not suitable for commercial or common use.

If the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does not comply with this, we emphasise that the manufacturer and the dealer will not be responsible for any repair and failure within the guarantee period.
