A rise in the temperature may be caused by:
• Opening the doors frequently for long periods of time
• 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 rst activated.
Bubbling noise and splash occurs: Due to the ow of the refrigerant in the tubes of
the system.
Water owing noise occurs: Due to water owing 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.
