Problem
The compressor is
switching on more
frequently and for
longer periods of time.
The temperature in the
appliance is too low.
The compressor runs
continuously.
Cause and remedy
The ventilation gaps have been covered or become
too dusty.
 Do not block the ventilation gaps.
 Dust the ventilation gaps regularly.
The doors have been opened too frequently, or a
large amount of fresh food has been placed inside
and/or frozen at the same time.
 Only open the doors when necessary and for as
short a time as possible.
The required temperature will re-establish itself after a
while.
The appliance doors are not closed properly. A thick
layer of ice may have formed in the freezer.
 Close the appliance doors.
The required temperature will re-establish itself after a
while.
If a thick layer of ice has formed, it will reduce
efficiency and increase the energy consumption.
 Defrost the appliance and clean it.
The ambient room temperature is too high. The higher
the room temperature, the longer the compressor will
run for.
 See "Installation - Location".
The temperature setting is too low.
 Adjust the temperature.
A large amount of food is being frozen at once.
 See "Freezing and storing food".
The Super cool function is still switched on.
 You can switch off the Super cool function earlier
to save energy.
The Super freeze function is still switched on.
 You can switch off the Super freeze function earlier
to save energy.
This is not a fault. To save energy, the compressor
runs at a lower speed, but for longer, when less
cooling is required.
