working.

The green LED (if provided) is

off and the appliance is

working.

The compressor runs

continuously.

Too much ice on the upper

edge.

Formation of condensate on

the external walls of the

appliance.

The layer of ice on the

internal walls of the appliance

is  not  uniform.

Is there a power failure?

Is  a  defrosting  operation  in  progress?

Is the appliance lid properly closed?

Is the appliance placed near a heat source?

Is  the  thermostat  setting  correct?

Are the ventilation grille and condenser clean?

Is  the  appliance  perfectly  horizontal?

Is the appliance in contact with other furniture or objects that may

cause  vibrations?

Has the packaging been removed from under the appliance?

Note:

 Gurgling noises from the refrigerating circuit after the compressor

cuts out are perfectly normal.

Is there a power failure?

Is the plug properly inserted in the socket?

Is the electric cable intact?

The green LED is not working. Contact the After Sales Service for a

replacement.

Have hot foods been put in the appliance?

Has the appliance lid been left open for a long time?

Is the appliance placed in a very warm room or near heat sources?

mistake?

Are the defrost water drainage plugs correctly positioned?

Is the appliance lid properly closed?

Is the appliance lid seal damaged or deformed? (See chapter

"Installation")

Have the 4 protection pieces been removed? (See chapter

"Installation")

It is normal for condensation to form under certain atmospheric

conditions (humidity above 85%) or if the appliance is located in a

damp or poorly ventilated room. The performance of the appliance is in

no way affected.

This phenomenon is quite normal.
