Frequently Asked Questions
Problem
The compressor is turn-
ing on more frequently
and for longer periods
of time; the temperature
in the appliance is too
low.
The compressor comes
on less and less often
and for shorter periods
of time. The tempera-
ture in the appliance
rises.
The door to the Freezer
Zone will not open be-
cause it has been
opened and closed too
many times in succes-
sion.
The compressor runs
continuously.
The temperature display
shows 0°F (-18°C), al-
though a higher temper-
ature is set.

Possible cause and solution
The temperature setting is too low.
 Correct the temperature setting.
A large amount of food was put in for freezing at
once.
 See the information in the section on "Freezing
and storing food".
The SuperFrost function is still turned on.
 To save energy, you can switch the SuperFrost
function off early yourself.
This is not a fault. The temperature setting is too
high.
 Correct the temperature setting.
 Check the temperature again after 24 hours.
The food begins to thaw.
The ambient temperature is too low for this appli-
ance.
If the ambient temperature is too low, the compres-
sor will run less frequently. This may cause the
freezer to become too warm.
 See the information in the section on "Installation –
Installation location".
 Increase the ambient temperature.
This is not a fault. The suction caused by opening
and closing the door is preventing the door from
opening. Wait approx. 1 minute and then try again.
It should now open without force.
Not a fault. To save energy, the compressor runs at
a lower speed when less cooling is required. This
increases the compressor run time.
This is not a fault. When the ice maker is turned on
and the ambient room temperature is also low (< +
0°F (-18°C)) the temperature is automatically ad-
justed to -0°F (-18°C). This guarantees that the ice
maker functions efficiently.
