MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING
The incorrect operation of the appliance is not
always due to a fault but it may also result from
poor installation or usage. To prevent unnecessary
service calls for which you will be charged, we
suggest you consult this trouble-shooting guide.
1. If the red light is on continuously or
flashing, the internal temperature is too
high. Check that:
• the door is not properly shut;
• the thermostat control knob is correctly set (see
chapter “Adjustment of the temperature”);
• the freezer is not near a source of heat;
• there is a large build up of frost on the inner
walls;
• the air flow is not restricted.
2. If the compressor functions continuously.
Check that:
• the fast freeze switch is turned off;
• the ambient temperature is too warm;
• the door is not being opened too frequently.
3. The appliance is excessively noisy. Check
that:
• the appliance is level.
4. The appliance does not operate. Check that:
• the thermostat control knob is not set to
position 0;
• there is not a power failure;
• the plug is making good contact with the supply
socket;
• any automatic circuit breakers have tripped or
any fuses blown;
• the supply cable is intact (see also Note).
Note: When replacing a damaged supply cord, be
sure the new cord is correctly clamped. If you have
followed this trouble shooting guide and your
freezer still does not work properly, get in touch
with your Retailer or Service Agent. State clearly
what is wrong and the type and serial number of
your freezer.
