Problem solving guide

Operating in a room which is too cold will cause the cooling system to switch off for too long causing the freezer compartment to become too warm.

. . . food has frozen together.

Use a blunt instrument, e.g. a spoon handle or plastic scraper, to prise it apart carefully.

. . . there is a thick layer of ice in the freezer compartment.

^Check whether the freezer compartment door closes properly.

^Defrost and then clean the freezer compartment.

Too thick a layer of ice reduces efficiency and increases energy consumption.

. . . the interior light in the refrigerator is not working.

Has the refrigerator door been left open for too long? The lighting switches itself off automatically after approx. 15 minutes.

If it also does not come on when the door is opened briefly, but the temperature display is working, then the lamp is defective.

^Disconnect the appliance from the mains. Switch off at the wall and withdraw the plug from the socket, or disconnect the mains fuse or remove the screw-out fuse in countries where this is applicable.

^Grasp the lamp cover at the top and at the bottom (1), and pull it forwards to remove (2).

^Unscrew the lamp. This requires some strength, as the safety catch needs to be released.

^Change the lamp.

Lamp specification:

220 - 240 V, E 14 fitting

See the old lamp for the Wattage required.

^Screw the new lamp into the connection. Make sure the safety catch is correctly fitted a.

^Replace the lamp cover, and click it into place at the sides.
