The edges of the appliance in contact with the door seal are hot
In hot seasons, surfaces in contact with the door seal can become warmer when the
compressor is in operation. This is normal.
There is a build-up of moisture inside the appliance
Check if:
• All food is properly packaged. Packaging must be dry before being placed in the refrigerator
or freezer.
• The door of the appliance is opened often. Humidity in the room penetrates the appliance
when the doors are open. Humidity rapidly increases if the doors are opened frequently,
especially if room humidity is high.
The door does not open or close properly
Check if:
• There are foods or packaging preventing the door from closing.
• The door seals are damaged or bent.
• Your appliance is on a flat surface.
• The compressor/refrigerator noise may increase on some models during operation under
certain conditions, such as when the product is first plugged in, when room temperature
changes, or when there is a change in use. This is normal and the noise automatically
decreases when the refrigerator reaches the required temperature.
Recommendations
• If the appliance is turned off or disconnected, wait at least 5 minutes before connecting
or restarting the appliance to prevent damage to the compressor.
• If the appliance is not to be used for an extended period (e.g. holiday), disconnect the
plug. Defrost and clean the freezer, then leave the door open to prevent mould and
odours from forming.
• If the problem persists after following all of the above instructions, consult the nearest
authorised technician.
• This appliance is intended for domestic use only. It is not suitable for commercial or
public use. If the consumer uses the appliance in a way that does not comply with these
instructions, the manufacturer and the seller cannot under any circumstances be held
responsible for any repair or failure occurring during the warranty period.
