BEFORE CALLING YOUR AFTER SALES SERVICE

If your refrigerator is not working properly,it may be a minor problem, therefore to save
time and money, check the following before calling an electrician.
What to do if your refrigerator does not operate
Check that:
• There is no power,
• The general switch in your home is disconnected,
• The thermostat setting is on the "" position,
• The socket is not faulty. To check this, plug in another appliance that you know is
working into the same socket.
What to do if your refrigerator performs poorly
Check that:
• You have not overloaded the appliance,
• The doors are closed properly,
• There is no dust on the condenser,
• There is enough place at the rear and side walls.
If there is noise:
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 quite
normal. If you hear any other noises, check that:
• The appliance is level
• Nothing is touching the rear of the appliance.
• The objects on the appliance are vibrating.
If there is water in the lower part of the refrigerator
Check that:
The drain hole for the water is not clogged (use defrost drain plug to clean the drain hole).
Recommendations
• Unplug your refrigerator during a power cut to prevent any damage to the
compressor. Delay plugging in your refrigerator by 5-10 minutes once power is
restored.
• If you unplug the refrigerator for any reason, you should wait at least 5 minutes
before plugging it in. This will help to avoid damage to refrigerator's components.
• The cooling unit of your refrigerator is hidden in the rear wall. 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 the icing is excessive.
• If you do not intend to use your fridge for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays), set
the thermostat to the "" position. After defrosting, clean your fridge and leave the
door open to prevent humidity and smells.
• If a problem persists after you have followed all the instructions above, please
consult to the nearest Authorised Service Centre.
