Sweat on the External Surface
According to international norm ISO8561, refrigerators,
freezers and their combinations of domestic use should
not present external surface water drainage but when
installed in locations with relative humidity above 75%
and temperatures above 32ºC, it is normal for the refri-
gerator to present external condensing (sweat).
Normal Operational Noises
Your refrigerator may make a squeaking noise, espe-
cially when the door is open. This noise is as result of
the expansion of fluid within the evaporator, which does
not represent a defect.
The compressor can also make some noise. This is
a characteristic of modern compressors that work at
higher speeds than the former models, presenting better
performance and reduced power consumption.
Water feeding to the ice maker and water dispenser
can generate noises. This is a normal characteristic
of the water pump operation located behind the water
container (in models DFI80/DI80X).

place for a long period.
• Wait for the defreezing period to end (about 30
minutes) and the selected function will be run
as requested.
• The compressor, after disconnection, will
always wait some minutes before connec-
ting again for the internal pressures of the
refrigeration system to stabilize. This prevents
overloading and premature discharge of the
compressor, which is normal.
• After pressing a function selection key, there
is a time span of few seconds (Intentional) for
the function to be actuated. This allows you to
visually confirm your choice before the function
becomes active.
• Correctly set the humidity control.
• Properly pack the food.
• Remove the plug from the outlet, wait 10
seconds and plug it back.
• Keep the freezer door closed.
• Choose to make the amount of ice to be con-
sumed.
• Avoid leaving the ice storage container away
from its place for a long time. Use the "Ice
Stock".
• Remove the melted ice and repeat the ice
making process.
• Fill the container with potable water, wait a few
seconds and activate the button Ice Maker.
The ice maker can also generate noises while making
the ice. This is a normal characteristic of the haste ope-
ration which checks if there is ice or not formed in the
storage container, or by the rotating movement of the
automatic ice maker extractor (ice falling on the storage
container in models DFI80/DI80X).
The contraction and dilation of internal components
due to temperature fluctuation can generate small
snaps in your refrigerator, which do not represent
any kind of defect.

Door Seal

Upon closing the refrigerator's door there will be an inter-
nal vacuum, hindering its opening, which is normal due
to a perfect sealing. However, do not force its opening.
Wait for some instants before opening again.
Ice on Freezer Compartment
Your operating fridge can present fine layers of ice in
the freezer compartment, specially below glass shelves
and "Multi Flow" air outlets. It will not bring problems to
your fridge operation.
