• Loading the appliance with large
quantities of warm foods
•
A high ambient temperature
• An error with the appliance.
Your freezer is operating noisily
Normal noises
Cracking (ice cracking) noise occurs:
•
During automatic defrosting
•
When the appliance is cooled
or warmed (due to expansion of
appliance material).
Short cracking noise occurs:
When
the thermostat switches the compressor
on/off.
Motor noise:
Indicates the compressor
is operating normally. The compressor
may cause more noise for a short time
when it is first activated.
Bubbling noise and splash occurs:
Due to the flow of the refrigerant in the
tubes of the system.
Water flowing noise occurs:
Due
to water flowing to the evaporation
container. This noise is normal during
defrosting.
Air blowing noise occurs:
In No-Frost
freezers during normal operation of the
system due to the circulation of air.
The edges of the freezer in contact with
the door joint are warm
Especially during summer (warm seasons),
the surfaces in contact with the door joint
may become warmer during the operation
of the compressor, this is normal.
There is a build-up of humidity inside
the freezer
Check if:
•
All food is packed properly. Containers
must be dry before being placed in the
freezer.
•
The freezer door is opened frequently.
Humidity of the room enters the freezer
when the doors are opened. Humidity
increases faster when the doors are
opened more frequently, especially if the
humidity of the room is high.
• There is a build-up of water droplets
on the rear wall. This is normal after
automatic defrosting (in Static Models).
The door does not open or close
properly
Check if:
•
There is food or packaging preventing the
door from closing
•
The door compartments, shelves and
drawers are placed correctly
•
The door joints are broken or torn
•
Your freezer is on a level surface.
Important Notes:
• In the case of a power failure, or if the
appliance is unplugged and plugged in
again, the gas in the cooling system of
your freezer will destabilise, causing the
compressor protective thermal element
to open. Your freezer will start to operate
normally after 5 minutes.
• If the appliance will not be used for a long
period of time (such as during holidays),
disconnect the plug. Defrost and clean
the freezer, leaving the door open to
prevent the formation of mildew and
odour.
•
If the problem persists after you have
followed all the instructions above,
please consult the nearest Authorised
Service Centre.
