FAULTS
Faults table
When you have any doubts about whether your appliance is working properly you should not
immediately assume that it is defective. We recommend that you should in any case check the
points in the following table.
Symptom
The refrigerator emits a slight
odour when used for the first
time.
The appliance does nothing;
the lighting is not lit.
Temperature inside refrigerator
too high or too low.
Water runs from the
refrigerator.
Appliance makes a noise.
EN 22
Possible cause
New appliance.
Plug not in socket.
Thermostat off.
Thermostat setting incorrect.
The door seals are dirty or the
seals are damaged.
Door seals not installed
correctly.
Defrost water drain clogged.
Incorrect positioning of food in
the refrigerator (or freezer).
There is an object against the
appliance.
The appliance is cooled by a refrigeration system with a
compressor (and with some models, also a fan) that makes
a noise. The noise level depends on the installation of the
appliance, its correct use and its age.
When you connect the appliance to the power supply the
noise made by the compressor or flowing refrigerant may be
slightly louder. This is not indicative of a defect, and has no
effect on the service life of the appliance. The appliance will
make less noise after a while.
The appliance may be temporarily noisier after the door has
been opened for too long or too frequently, a large quantity
of fresh food has been put in the appliance or the intensive
cooling function has been activated.
Solution
This is normal and disappears
when the appliance starts
cooling.
Insert the plug in the socket.
Adjust the thermostat to the
correct setting.
Adjust the thermostat
properly.
Clean the door seals. Call the
service centre if the door seals
are damaged.
When changing the direction
of rotation of the door, the
door seal must be turned
180°. Check if this is correct.
Clean defrost water drain (see
"Defrosting the appliance").
Place foods in the proper
manner in the refrigerator or
freezer.
Remove the object.
