• Do not fill the appliance with too much food: cold air

must circulate freely for food to be preserved properly.
If circulation is impeded, the compressor will work
continuously.

• Do not place hot food directly into the refrigerator. The

internal temperature will increase and force the compressor
to work harder and will consume more energy.

• Defrost the appliance if ice forms (see Maintenance). A thick

layer of ice makes cold transference to food products more
difficult and results in increased energy consumption.

• Regularly check the door seals and wipe clean to ensure

they are free of debris and to prevent cold air from escaping
(see Maintenance).

Troubleshooting

If the appliance does not work, before calling for Assistance
(see Assistance), check for a solution from the following list.

The internal light does not illuminate.

• 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 refrigerator and the freezer do not cool well.

• The doors do not close properly or the seals are damaged.
• The doors are opened too frequently.
• The TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is not in the correct

position.

• The refrigerator or the freezer have been over-filled.
• The atmospheric temperature of the area surrounding the

appliance is lower than 14°C.

The food inside the refrigerator is beginning to freeze.

• The TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT knob is not in the correct

position.

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

refrigerator.

The motor runs continuously.

• The door is not closed properly or is continuously opened.
• The outside ambient temperature is very high.
• The thickness of the frost exceeds 2-3 mm (see

Maintenance).

The appliance makes a lot of noise.

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

Installation).

• The appliance has been installed between cabinets that

vibrate and make noise.

• The internal refrigerant makes a slight noise even when the

compressor is off. This is not a defect, it is normal.

Some of the external parts of the refrigerator become hot.

• These raised temperatures are necessary in order to

avoid the formation of condensation on certain parts of the
product.

The back wall of the refrigerator unit is covered in frost or
droplets of water

• This shows the appliance is operating normally.

There is water at the bottom of the refrigerator.

• The water discharge hole is blocked (see Maintenance).
