If something does not work

During operation of the appliance some smaller but annoying trouble can often occur, which does not require calling a technician out. In the following chart information is given about them to avoid unnecessary charges on serv- ice.

We draw your attention that operation of appliance goes with certain sounds (compressor- and circulating sound). This does not necessarily mean a fault has occurred, this goes together with the operation of the appliance.

We draw it to your attention again that the appliance operates discontinu- ously, so the stopping of compressor does not mean being no-current. That is why you must not touch the electrical parts of the appliance before break- ing the circuit.
