cleaner at least once a year.
Remark: Do not use abrasive tools or materials containing alcohol or harsh cleaning
solutions. Do not use any electrical appliances, such as steam cleaners etc., for de-frosting or
cleaning.
Trouble-shooting
Certain typical sounds can be heard when the appliance is switched on. These sounds are:
- Caused by the electrical motor within the compressor
assembly; during compressor start-up the sound level will be
slightly higher for a limited period of time.
- Caused by the cooling agent flowing through the circuit.
The following table lists the possible malfunctions, their probable causes and solutions. In
the event of operational problems, check first whether a solution can be found using this
table. If the problem persists, disconnect the appliance from the mains power and contact
our Customer Service Department.
Problem
The appliance is connected to the mains,
but does not operate.
Abnormal noise can be heard during
freezer operation.
When opening the door, the rubber seal
pops out.
Transporting the appliance
The unit must be transported only in its vertical position.
Do not tilt it any more than 45°. During transport, ensure that the unit is properly secured
and protected against shock, vibration and shifting.
Possible cause and solution
The wall socket has no power, or there are
contact problems. Check the wall socket
and the plug.
Either the unit has been improperly set up
(e.g. on an uneven floor) or there is contact
between the rear-mounted cooling circuit
and the power cord, the wall or other
object or surface. Verify that all
installation instructions in this manual
have been correctly complied with.
The seal must be re-fitted properly, by
pressing in the inner part of the seal. If the
seal shows signs of a greasy residue, the
seal and the door must be properly cleaned
with water and a mild detergent, and then
thoroughly dried before the seal is
replaced in the door.
