Your appliance is constructed and manufactured to give func-
tional safety and a long life.
Should however a fault occur during operation, then please
check whether the fault can possibly be due to an operator’s er-
ror, because in this case you must pay for the costs arising, even
during the warranty period.
You can remedy the following faults yourself by checking the pos-
sible causes:
Fault possible cause and remedy
Appliance is not working, display is dark
- Is the appliance switched on properly?
- Is the mains plug in the power point properly?
- Is the fuse in the plug OK?
Noises are too loud
- Is the appliance standing firmly on the floor, are units or ob-
jects standing next to it made to vibrate by the running of the
refrigerating unit? Perhaps move the appliance away a little,
even up using the adjustable feet, move bottles and contain-
ers away from one another.
- The following are normal: flowing sounds, a bubbling or
splashing, these come from the refrigerant that flows in the
refrigerant circuit.
A slight clicking sound, this always happens when the refriger-
ating unit (the motor) automatically switches on or off.
A humming motor. It is a little louder briefly, when the unit
switches itself on. After the door has been open a long time,
the refrigerating capacity automatically increases.
Alarm sounds, temperature is not cold enough
- Is the appliance door closed properly?
- Is the ventilation sufficient?
Perhaps free up the ventilation grilles.
- Is the ambient temperature too warm?
(see section “Definitions”)
- Has the appliance been open too often or for too long?
- Perhaps wait and see if the required temperature is re-set by
itself.
- Please be aware that, as with other forms of storage, depend-
ing on the type of label adhesive, a slight mould can form. The
remedy in this case is to carefully clean adhesive residues
from the bottles.
Appliance sometimes feels warm on the outside surfaces
- This is completely normal. The heat of the refrigerant circuit is
used to prevent condensation.
Faults - Problems? Your old appliance: This contain s some reusable
materials and should be dispo sed of properly - not
simply with unsorted hou sehold refuse.
• Discarded appliances should be d isabled: Remove
the plug, cut through the con nection cable and
render the catch unusable so t hat children cannot
become trapped inside.
• Ensure that the refrigerant circuit is not damaged when the
appliance that is no longer needed is taken away for disposal.
• Details of the refrigerant can be found o n the type plate.
• Appliances which are no longer nee ded must be disposed of
in a professional and appropri ate way, in accordance with the
current local regulation s and laws.
When there are none of the above causes and you have
not been able to remedy the problem yourself or when
a “F 0” to “ F 5” appears in the temperature display, this
means: there is a fault. In this case, contact your nearest
Customer Service Centre (directory enclosed). Inform them of
this message, also the
name of the appliance 1,
service number2,
appliance number 3
from the rating plate. This facilitates fast,
targeted service. The rating plate is located
on the left-hand side inside the appliance.
Leave the appliance closed until the Cus-
tomer Care Department engineer arrives, to prevent a further loss
of cold.
