BEFORE CALLING YOUR AFTER SALES SERVICE

Alarm indicator led is turning on ERROR TYPE WHY "Failure

Warning"

There is/are some part(s) Out of order or there is a failure in cooling process WHAT TO DO Check the door is open or not. If the door is not open, call service for assistance as soon as possible. If your fridge freezer is not working properly, it may be a minor problem, therefore check the following, before calling an electrician to save time and money. What to do if your appliance does not operate; Check that; • There is no power, • The general switch in your home is disconnected , • The socket is not sufficient. To check this, plug in another appliance that you know which is working into the same socket. What to do if your appliance performs poorly; Check that; • You have not overloaded the appliance, • The fridge temperature set to MAX. • The door is closed perfectly, • There is no dust on the condenser, • There is enough place at the rear and side walls. If your fridge is operating too loudly; Normal Noises Cracking (Ice cracking) Noise: • During automatic defrosting. • When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material). Short cracking: Heard when the thermostat switches the compressor on/off. Compressor noise: Normal motor noise. This noise means that the compressor operates normally Compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is activated. Bubbling noise and splash: This noise is caused by the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system. Water flow noise: Normal flow noise of water flowing to the evaporation container during defrosting. This noise can be heard during defrosting. Air Blow Noise: Normal fan noise. This noise can be heard in fridges during normal operation of the system due to the circulation of air. If the edges of fridge cabinet that the door joint contact are warm; Especially in summer (hot weather), the surfaces that the joint contact may get warmer during the operation of the compressor, this is normal. If humidity builds up inside the fridge freezer; • Are all food packed properly? Are the containers dried before placing them in the fridge? • Are the fridge freezeer's doors opened frequently? Humidity of the room gets in the fridge when the door is opened. Humidity build up will be faster when you open the door more frequently, especially if the humidity of the room is high. If the doors are not opened and closed properly; • Do the food packages prevent closing of the door? • Are the door compartments, shelves and drawers placed properly? • Are door joints broken or torn? • Is your fridge freezer on a level surface? Recommendations • To stop the appliance completely, unplug from main socket (for cleaning and when the door is left open) Tips for saving energy

a heat source (radiator, cooker.. etc). Otherwise use an insulating plate.

2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.

3. When thawing frozen food, place it in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of the frozen food will help to cool the refrigerator compartment when it is thawing. This will help to save energy. If the frozen food is put out, it results in a waste of energy.

4. Cover drinks or other liquids when placing them in the appliance Otherwise humidity increases in the appliance. Therefore, the working time gets longer. Also covering drinks and other liquids helps to preserve smell and taste.

5. Try to avoid keeping the doors open for long periods or opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.

6. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (crisper, chiller ...etc) closed

7. Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
