TROUBLESHOOTING
The appliance is not plugged in. Plug it in to an earthed socket.
No power to the electrical outlet. Check that the plug is not faulty.
Household fuse has blown/circuit breaker has tripped. Replace the fuse or reset
the circuit breaker.
Check that the voltage is correct for the appliance.
Large amount of warm food recently added. Allow several hours for the refrigerator to
return to its normal temperature.
Controls are not set correctly for the surrounding conditions.
Check that the appliance is not placed in direct sunlight, or too near to a heating
source.
Check that the ambient temperature is within the operation limits of the appliance.
Are the doors of the appliance opened frequently? Once the door is opened, the
humidity found in the air in the room enters the appliance, especially if the humidi-
ty levels in the room are very high. The more frequently the door is opened in humid
conditions the more chance of moisture building up.
The door is not completely closed.
The door gasket is not properly sealed.
Air vents are blocked. Remove any items that are immediately in front of the vents.
Increase the ambient temperature within the fridge by adjusting the thermostat to a
lower setting. The highest setting should only be used as a rapid cool setting and should
only be set 2 hours before storing a large load of food. If this is not done, the temperature
in the fridge compartment could fall below 0°C, as the compressor will run continuously.
A hot and humid environment will contribute to moisture being built-up. This is
normal.
Check that all the food and the drinks in the fridge are within their 'best before'
date and is packaged correctly. If this weren't the case, repackage or throw the
expired food away immediately.
Check for spillage on each shelf, rack and drawer. You may need to remove the
drawers to check that no food or liquids have settled underneath them. Wipe up
any spills immediately to avoid smells and unwanted odours.
Ensure there are no objects obstructing the door.
Make sure all bins and shelves are in their correct position.
Check the door seal is not warped or torn.
Confirm the appliance is level.
