TROUBLESHOOTING  

Problem:

Cause or remedy:

Appliance is connected 
to the power mains but 
it does not work.

• Make sure there is voltage in the power outlet and 

that the appliance is switched on.

Cooling system 
operates continuously 
for a long period of 
time:

A

• Too high ambient temperature.
• Door opened too frequently or too long.
• Door not closed correctly (possible impurities on 

the seal, misaligned door, damaged seal etc.).

• Too much fresh food inserted at once.
• Sensor in the refrigerator (A) blocked by fresh 

food. Make sure the air can circulate around the 
sensor (only with some models).

• Insufficient compressor and condenser unit 

cooling. Check for sufficient air circulation behind 
the appliance and clean the condenser unit.

Excessive build-up of 
ice on the back wall 
of refrigerator interior 
can be a result of the 
following:

• The door is not closed properly.
• Warm food placed in the refrigerator.
• Food or containers in contact with the back 

interior wall of the refrigerator.

• The door does not seal properly (the seal is dirty, 

the door is misaligned or the seal is damaged, etc.). 

Condensate (dew) on 
the shelf above the 
drawers:

• This is transient phenomenon which cannot be 

entirely avoided in periods of high environment 
temperature and humidity. It subsides when 
temperature and humidity are normalized. We 
recommend cleaning the drawers more frequently 
and wiping the droplets occasionally.

• Put food in bags or other packaging with a good 

seal.

Water is dripping/
leaking from the 
refrigerator:

• Clogged water discharge opening or water 

dripping past the water gutter.

• Clean the blocked opening, e.g. using a plastic 

straw.

• If a thick layer of ice builds up, defrost the 

appliance manually (see Defrosting the Appliance).

Indicator 

D

 flashes:

• Door opened too frequently or too long.
• Door not closed correctly (possible impurities on 

the seal, misaligned door, damaged seal etc.).

• An extended power failure.
• Too much fresh food inserted at once.
