Trouble-Shooting Guide
During the service, you can come across some
troubles that in most cases result from improper
handling of the appliance and can easy be
eliminated.
The Appliance Fails to Operate
After Connecting to the Mains
Supply
xCheck the supply in the outlet socket and make
sure the appliance is switched on (thermostat
knob in operating position).
Continuous Operation of the
Cooling System
xThe door was frequently opened or it was left
opened for too long.
xThe door is not properly closed (the door may
sag, the gasket may be polluted or damaged).
xPerhaps you have overloaded the appliance
with fresh foods.
xThe reason may be inadequate ventilation of
the compressor and condenser (assure
adequate air circulation and wipe off the
condenser).
Ice Formation on the Inner Rear
Wall
As long as the defrost water runs to the channel
and through the outlet to the drain pan on the
compressor, automatic defrosting of the
appliance is assured.
In case the ice formation on the inner back wall is
increased (3-5 mm), ice should be manually
defrosted.
Set the thermostat knob to STOP (0) position and
leave the door open. Never use electric devices
for defrosting and do not scrape the ice or frost
layer with sharp objects.
After completed defrosting, turn the knob to
desired position and close the refrigerator door.
The cause of increased ice formation may be one
of the following:
the door does not seal well (clean the gasket if
it is contaminated, or replace it if it is
damaged);
the door was frequently opened or it was left
opened for too long;
the food stored in the refrigerator was warm;
the food or dish is touching the inner back wall.
Water is Leaking From the
Refrigerator
In case the discharge water outlet is clogged, or
the defrost water drips over the channel, water
leaks from the refrigerator.
xClean the clogged outlet, for example with a
plastic straw.
xManually defrost the increased ice layer. See
"Ice Formation on the Inner Rear Wall".
Noise
Cooling in refrigerating-freezing appliances is
enabled by the cooling system with compressor,
which produces noise. How noisy the appliance
is depends on where it is placed, how it is used
and how old the appliance is.
xDuring the operation of the compressor the
noise of liquid is heard and when the
compressor is not operating, the refrigerant
flow is heard. This is a normal condition and it
has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of
the appliance.
xAfter starting the appliance, the operation of
the compressor and the refrigerant flow may be
louder, which does not mean that something is
wrong with the appliance and it has no
influence on the lifetime of the appliance.
Gradually the noise is reduced.
xSometimes unusual and stronger noise is
heard, which is rather unusual for the
appliance. This noise is often a consequence of
inadequate placing.
The appliance shall be placed and levelled
firmly on solid base.
It should not touch the wall or kitchen units
standing next to it.
Check the accesories in the interior of the
appliance, they should be placed correctly in
their positions; also check the bottles, tins
and other vessels that might touch each
other and rattle.
