Malfunctions:

not illuminate.

The indicator lights are on but the light

is dim.

a) The alarm sounds.

b) The alarm sounds and the two

yellow indicator lights flash.

The refrigerator and the freezer do not

cool well.

The food inside the refrigerator is

beginning to freeze.

The motor runs continuously.

The appliance makes a lot of noise.

There is water at the bottom of the

refrigerator.

Possible causes / Solutions:

• The plug has not been inserted into the electrical socket, or not far enough to

make contact, or there is no power in the house.

• The appliance comes with a motor protection control (see Start-up and use).

• Pull out and reverse the plug before putting it back in the socket.

a) The refrigerator door has remained open for more than two minutes (the buzzer

will stop sounding when you shut the door) or the correct switching-off

procedure was not followed (see Maintenance).

b) The temperature in the freezer is too high. Check the quality of the food

products and dispose if necessary.

c) The temperature in the freezer has reached a dangerous level. The food must

be disposed immediately.

b/c) In both these cases the freezer will maintain a temperature of about 0°C so

that the food does not re-freeze.

To turn off the acoustic signal open and close the refrigerator door. To restore

normal operation bring the FREEZER OPERATION knob setting to (off)

and turn the appliance on again.

• The doors do not close properly or the seals are damaged.

• The doors are opened too frequently.

• The OPERATION knobs are not on the correct setting (see Description).

• The refrigerator or the freezer have been over-filled.

• The REFRIGERATOR OPERATION knob is not on the correct setting (see

Description).

• The food is in contact with the back inside wall of the refrigerator.

• The SUPER FREEZE button has been pressed (rapid freezing): the yellow

SUPER FREEZE light is on or flashing (see Description).

• The door is not closed properly or is continuously opened.

• The appliance has not been installed on a level surface (see Installation).
