YOUR FRIDGE APPEARS TO BE
PERFORMING POORLY
THERE IS A NOISE

Troubleshooting

CHECK THAT THE PLUG IS WELL-INSERTED INTO THE
POWER SOCKET
CHECK THAT THERE IS POWER FROM THE MAINS –
THERE MAY BE A BLACKOUT OR YOUR FUSES MAY HAVE
BLOWN.
CHECK THAT THE ELECTRONIC THERMOSTAT (REGULATOR
FOUND ON THE INSIDE WALL OF THE FRIDGE-FREEZER
NEAR THE TOP) IS IN THE RECOMMENDED FUNCTIONING
POSITION AND NOT '0' (OFF).
CHECK THAT THE SOCKET IS SUFFICIENT AND NO
ADAPTER OR EXTENSION LEADS HAVE BEEN USED.
CHECK THAT THE POWER SUPPLY VOLTAGE
CORRESPONDS TO THE APPLIANCE.
YOU HAVE OVERLOADED THE APPLIANCE OR FOOD HAS
BEEN PACKED TOO TIGHTLY. TAKE OUT
AND CONSUME FOOD; LOOK FOR OUT-OF-DATE FOOD
THAT CAN BE DISPOSED OF.
THE THERMOSTAT SETTING IS SET TOO LOW. SET IT
HIGHER.
ENSURE THAT THE DOOR HAS BEEN CLOSED PROPERLY.
FOR INSTANCE, THERE MAY BE A PROBLEM INSIDE THE
UNIT, KEEPING THE DOOR OPEN OR ANOTHER
FAULT, SUCH AS A BROKEN OR MISSING
DOOR SEAL.
ENSURE THAT THERE IS NO DUST ON THE CONDENSER.
ENSURE THAT THERE IS ENOUGH ROOM AT THE REAR AND
SIDES OF THE UNIT.
THE COOLING GAS WHICH CIRCULATES MAY MAKE
A SLIGHT NOISE (BUBBLING SOUND) EVEN WHEN
THE COMPRESSOR IS NOT RUNNING. THIS IS
NORMAL. IF THESE SOUNDS CHANGE, ENSURE:
YOUR UNIT IS WELL LEVELLED /
NOTHING IS TOUCHING THE REAR OF THE UNIT /
NO MATERIAL ON THE APPLIANCE IS VIBRATING.
NOTE: A SOUND LIKE FLOWING WATER IS PERFECTLY
NATURAL AS IT INDICATES THAT THE REFRIGERANT IS
'fluffed' outward.
