What to do if…
During operation of the appliance some
smaller but annoying trouble can often occur,
which does not require calling a technician
out. In the following chart information is given
about them to avoid unnecessary charges on
service.
Important! The operation of the appliance
goes with certain sounds (compressor and
circulating sound). This not means a trouble,
but a normal operation.
Important! The appliance operates
discontinuously, so the stopping of
compressor does not mean being no
current. That is why you must not touch the
electrical parts of the appliance before
breaking the circuit.
