There is a build-up of humidity inside the appliance

Check if:
All food is packed properly. Containers must be dry before 

being placed in the fridge.
The fridge doors are opened frequently. Humidity of the 

room will enter the fridge each time the doors are opened. 

Humidity increases faster if the doors are opened 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 doors are not opening or closing properly

Check if:

• 

There is food or packaging preventing the door from 

closing

• 

The door compartments, shelves and drawers are 

placed properly

• 

The door gaskets are broken or torn 

• 

Your fridge is level.

The edges of the fridge/freezer in contact with the door 
joint are warm

Especially during summer (warm weather), the surfaces in 

contact with the door joint may become warmer during 

operation of the compressor. This is normal.

Important:

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 

appliance will destabilise, causing the compressor protective 

thermal element to open.
Your appliance 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 appliance, 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.

This appliance is designed for domestic use and for the stated

manufacturer and the dealer will not be responsible for any

Tips for saving energy

1. 

Install the appliance in a cool, wellventilated room, but 

not in direct sunlight and not near a heat source (such 

as a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate 

should be used.

2. 

Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them 

inside the appliance.

3. 

Place thawing food in the appliance compartment. The 

low temperature of the frozen food will help cool the 

appliance compartment while the food is thawing. This 

will save energy. Frozen food left to thaw outside of the 

appliance will result in a waste of energy.

4. 

Drinks or other liquides should be covered when inside 

the appliance. If left uncovered, the humidity inside the 

appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses 

more energy. Keeping drinks and other liquids covered 

helps preserve their smell and taste.

5. 

Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and 

opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter 

the appliance and cause the compressor to switch on 

unnecessarily often.

6. 

Keep the covers of the different temperature 

compartments ( such as the crisper and chiller) closed.

7. 

The door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace 

gaskets if worn.
