Problem
Solution
The doors do not close properly
• Ensure there are no obstructions preventing door
closure.
• Check the door compartments and shelves are correctly
in place.
• Check the door seal is not warped or torn.
• Check the appliance is level.
Unusual noises
• Check that the appliance is on a flat, level surface and is
stable.
• Check the spacing around the appliance and ensure it is
not touching other items.
• Bubbling and gurgling sound: This noise is emitted as
the coolant fluid flows through the pipes within the
system. This is normal.
• Contraction and expansion of the inside walls may
cause popping and cracking noises.
The cabinet door will not open
• If the door has just been opened, leave it for a few
minutes to allow the air pressure to equalise before
trying again.
Compressor runs constantly
• The temperature is set too cold: Select a lower (warmer)
setting.
• The door is open, or something is obstructing proper
door closure.
• The room temperature is hotter than usual.
The external fridge surface is warm
• The exterior walls can be warmer than room
temperature. This is normal while the compressor works
to transfer heat from inside the bottle cabinet.
Smells / odours
• Check all the drinks that are in the cabinet are in date
and correctly packaged. Please remove anything that
may be spoiled and repack if necessary.
• Check for spillages throughout the cabinet. Spillages
may cause odours if left unwashed. Wash accordingly to
the manufacturer’s advice.
