Smeg American Style Fridge Freezer FA550X - Manual (Page 22)

Remember
Motor running time depends on different things:
number of door openings, amount of food stored,
temperature of the room, setting of the
temperature controls.
If you have followed the above checks and
your appliance still does not work properly, get
in touch with the After-sales Service,
explaining the problem and specifying the
model and appliance service number (given on
the data plate).
If the refrigerator temperature is too high
• Are the refrigerator controls correctly set?
• Has a large amount of food been added to the
refrigerator or freezer?
• Check that the doors are not opened too often.
• Check that the doors close properly.
• Make sure that air flow vents inside the
compartment are not blocked, as this
prevents the circulation of cold air.
If there is moisture build-up
• Make sure that air flow vents inside the
compartment are not blocked, as this
prevents the circulation of air.
• Make sure that the food is properly
packaged. Dry any dampness on food
containers before placing them in the
refrigerator.
• Check that the doors are not opened too
often. When the door is opened, humidity
from the room air enters the refrigerator. The
more often the door is opened, the faster
humidity builds up, especially when the room
itself is very humid.
• If the room is very humid, it is normal for
moisture to build up inside the refrigerator.
• It is normal for droplets of water to form on
the back wall after the automatic defrost
cycle.
If the doors do not open and close properly
• Check that food packages are not blocking
the door.
• Check that the pans, shelves, drawers and
ice maker are all positioned correctly.
• Check that the door seals are not dirty or
sticky.
• Make sure that the refrigerator is level.
