TROUBLESHOOTING 

The following simple problems can be dealt with by the user. Please contact our customer 

service department if the freezer presents any problems that you cannot solve yourself. 

Compressor running for an 

abnormally long time 

It is normal for the freezer’s compressor to run for longer 

periods in the summer when the ambient temperature is 

higher.
Do not have too much food in the freezer at any one time.
Do not put foodstuffs into the freezer before they have 

cooled.
The freezer door is being opened too often. 
Thick ice layer (defrosting required). 

Interior light not working 

Check that the unit is connected to a working power supply.
Check that the light is intact.

Freezer door does not close 

fully

Check that there is nothing blocking the door.
Check that there is not too much food in the freezer.
Check that the freezer is not at an angle.

Noisy operation

Check that the foodstuffs are stably positioned.
Check that the freezer is standing firmly and balanced.
Check that all parts of the freezer are in the correct  

positions.

Door not opening easily

After freezing, there is a pressure difference between the 

inside and the outside of the freezer. This can make it 

temporarily difficult to open the door. This is entirely correct 

and normal.

Heat:

• 

Especially in the summer, the freezer may give off heat when it is running. This is heat radiated by the  

  compressor and is entirely normal.

• 

Condensation: 

When air humidity is high, condensation may form on the freezer’s exterior and the  

  door’s seals. This is entirely normal. The condensation can be removed with a dry towel.

• 

Gurgling: 

Circulation in the refrigerant lines can produce gurgling noises. This does not affect  

 functionality.

• 

Humming: 

There may be a humming noise when the compressor is running (especially during starting  

  and stopping).

• 

Clicking: 

There is a click when the solenoid valve (electric switch valve) operates. This is entirely  

  normal and does not affect freezer functionality.
