check/Remedial action
• Immediately turn the refrigerator off and see a Dometic dealer.
• Defective fuse?
Fit a new fuse.
• Connection to supply voltage?
Establish power connection.
• Is the plug firmly connected to the socket? Is the socket switched on?
Check the socket by plugging in another appliance.
• Is the thermostat properly set?
• Is the refrigerator level? Because of its operation it is important to keep an
absorption refrigerator level.
• Heavy frost build-up on evaporator fins? To prevent frost buildup, which can reduce
efficiency, do not leave the unit's door open longer than necessary.
• Has the overheating protection been triggered or not? (Must be checked by an authorized
service technician.)
• Is there a power failure? Are the fuses intact for the AC supply and control system?
• Has the door been closed properly? If not it can cause the inside temperature to rise.
• Overpacked refrigerator? The unit will have to work harder if the refrigerator is stuffed
and results in higher cabinet temperatures. Arrange the food in the unit to allow for free
air circulation.
• Venting problem? Restriction in air flow across cooling unit? Ensure that there is suffi-
cient clearance between the refrigerator and the surrounding walls to allow for proper air
circulation around the unit.
