If you are experiencing a problem with 

your 

appliance

, please check the following 

before contacting the after-sales service.

Your appliance is not operating

Check if:

•  There is power

• 

The plug is correctly placed in the socket

• 

The plug fuse or the mains fuse has 

blown

• 

The socket is defective. To check this, 

plug another working appliance into the 

same socket.

The appliance performs poorly

Check if:

• 

The appliance is overloaded

• 

The appliance door is closed properly

• 

There is any dust on the condenser

• 

There is enough space near the rear and 

side walls.

Your appliance is operating noisily

Normal noises

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 some 

models during normal operation of the 

system due to the circulation of air.

The edges of the appliance 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 appliance

Check if:

•  All food is packed properly. Containers 

must be dry before being placed in the 

appliance

.

• 

The 

appliance

 door is opened frequently. 

Humidity of the room enters the 

appliance

 when the doors are opened. 

Humidity increases faster when the doors 

are opened more frequently, especially if 

the humidity of the room is high.

The door does not open or close 

properly

Check if:

• 

There is food or packaging preventing the 

door from closing

• 

The door joints are broken or torn

• 

Your 

appliance

 is on a level surface.

• 

The compressor can run loudly or the 

noise of the compressor/refrigerator 

may increase in some models during 

operating in some conditions such that 

the product is plugged in for the first time, 

depending on change in the ambient 

temperature or change of usage. That 

is normal; when the refrigerator reaches 

the required temperature, the noise 

decreases automatically.

Recommendations

•  If the appliance is switched off or 

unplugged, wait at least 5 minutes before 

plugging the appliance in or restarting 

it in order to prevent damage to the 

compressor.

•  If you will not use your appliance for 

a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) 

unplug it. Clean your appliance according 

to chapter cleaning and leave the door 

open to prevent humidity and smell.

• 

If a problem persists after you have 

followed all the above instructions, 

please consult the nearest authorised 

service centre.
