The front of the cabinet feels warm
You may notice the cabinet front is
sometimes warm,this is normal and part
of the refrigerant circulating system
designed to help prevent condensation
on the door seal.
The freezer door is difficult to open
A well sealed freezer door can be difficult
to open. This is partly due to the
difference in temperature between the
room and internal freezer compartment.
If you have just closed the freezer door,it
maybe particularly difficult to open again
immediately. Wait 5 minutes for the
internal and external pressure to equalise
and try again.
The door will not close
1. Check to see if the appliance has a
build up of ice which is stopping the
door closing.If this is the case refer to
‘Defrosting’CLEANING &
MAINTENANCE section and defrost
the appliance.

contact with the interior back wall of
the fridge.
