Respecting and conserving the
environment
• Install the appliance in a fresh and well-ventilated room. Ensure
that it is protected from direct sunlight and do not place it near
heat sources.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or opening
the door too frequently in order to conserve energy.
• Do not fill the appliance with too much food: cold air must
circulate freely for food to be preserved properly. If circulation
is impeded, the compressor will work continuously.
• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The internal
temperature will increase and force the compressor to work
harder and will consume more energy.
• Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance). A thick
layer of ice makes cold transference to food products more
difficult and results in increased energy consumption.
Troubleshooting
If the appliance does not work, before calling for Assistance (see
Assistance), check for a solution from the following list.
The interface is off.
• The plug is not inserted in the outlet, or it is not powerful enough
to create a contact, or there is no electricity in the house.
The motor does not start.
• The appliance comes with a motor protection control (see
Start-up and use).
a) The alarm sounds.
a) The refrigerator door has remained open for more than two
minutes (the buzzer will stop sounding when you shut the door)
or the correct switching-off procedure was not followed (see
Maintenance).
The refrigerator and the freezer do not cool well.
• The doors do not close properly or the seals are damaged.
• The doors are opened too frequently.
• The FRIDGE TEMPERATURE is not correct (see Description).
• The refrigerator or the freezer have been over-filled.
The food inside the refrigerator is beginning to freeze.
• The FRIDGE TEMPERATURE is not correct (see Description).
• The food is in contact with the back inside wall of the
refrigerator.
The motor runs continuously.
• The SUPER FREEZE button was pressed: the yellow SUPER
FREEZE indicator is on (see Description).
• The door is not closed properly or is continuously opened.
• The outside ambient temperature is very high.
The appliance makes a lot of noise.
• The appliance has not been installed on a level surface (see
Installation).
• The appliance has been installed between cabinets that vibrate
and make noise.
• The internal refrigerant makes a slight noise even when the
compressor is off. This is not a defect, it is normal.
The back wall of the refrigerator unit is covered in frost or
droplets of water
• This shows the appliance is operating normally.
