TROUBLESHOOTING Problem: Appliance is connected to the power but it does not work. Cooling system operates continuously for a long period of time: Cause or remedy: • Make sure there is voltage in the power outlet and that the appliance is switched on. • Too high environment temperature. • Door opened too frequently or too long. • Door not closed correctly (possible impurities on the seal, misaligned door, damaged seal etc.). • Too much fresh food inserted at once. • Sensor in the refrigerator (A) blocked by fresh food. Make sure the air can circulate around the sensor (only with some models). • Insufficient compressor and condenser cooling. Check the air circulation behind the appliance and clean the condenser unit. Excessive build-up of ice on the back wall of refrigerator interior can be a result of the following: Build-up of ice or frost in the freezer interior may be a result of the following: Condensate (dew) on the shelf above the drawers: Water leaking from the refrigerator: Temperature display flashes: • Door opened too frequently or too long. • Warm food placed in the refrigerator. • Food in contact with the back interior wall of the refrigerator. • Poor door sealing. If the seal is dirty or damaged, clean it or replace it. • Door opened too frequently or too long. • Door not properly closed. • Poor door sealing. • If the seal is dirty or damaged, clean or replace it. • This is a transient phenomenon which cannot be entirely avoided in periods of high environment temperature and humidity. It subsides when temperature and humidity are normalized. We recommend cleaning the drawers more frequently and wiping the droplets occasionally. • Open the humidity control slider. • Place the food into bags or other airtight packaging. • Clogged water discharge opening or water dripping past the water gutter. • Clean the clogged opening, for example using a plastic straw. • If a thick layer of ice builds up, defrost the appliance manually (see Defrosting the Appliance). • Door opened too frequently or too long. • Door not closed correctly (possible impurities on the seal, misaligned door, damaged seal etc.). • A longer power failure. • Too much fresh food inserted at once. 721903 32
