Appliance self-test
Your appliance features an automatic
self-test program which shows you
sources of faults which may be repaired
by customer service only.
Starting the appliance self-test
1. Switch off the appliance and wait 5
minutes.
2. Switch on the appliance and hold
down the temperature selection
button, Fig. "/4, for 3-5 seconds
within the first 10 seconds until -26 °C
is lit on the temperature display.
The self-test programme starts, when
the temperature displays lit up
in succession.
When after a short time the appliance
displays the set temperature prior
to the self-test, everything is ok.
If the super display flashes for
10 seconds, an error has occurred.
Inform customer service.
Ending the appliance self-test
When the programme has ended, the
appliance switches over to normal
operation.
Fault Possible cause Remedial action
Freezer compartment door
was open for a long time;
temperature is no longer
reached.
The evaporator (refrigeration
generator) in the NoFrost
system is covered in thick ice
and can no
longer be defrosted fully
automatically.
To defrost the evaporator, remove the frozen
food with the compartments, insulate well
and store in a cool location.
Switch off the appliance and move it away
from the wall. Leave the appliance door open.
After approx. 20 min. the condensation begins
to run into the evaporation pan,
at the rear of the appliance. Fig. +
To prevent the evaporation pan
from overflowing in this case,
mop up the condensation with a sponge.
The evaporator is defrosted when the water
stops running into the evaporation pan. Clean
the interior. Switch the appliance
back on again.
