WHAT TO DO
• Check that the power cord is plugged into the power outlet properly
and that the outlet is switched on.
• Try running another appliance from the same power outlet. If no power
is coming out from the outlet, you may have a blown fuse or tripped
your household power supply circuit.
• Try adjusting the temperature control to a slightly colder position.
• It is normal for the freezer fan to NOT operate during the automatic
defrost cycle or for a short time after the refrigerator is turned on.
Your refrigerator uses energy efficient components that may produce
different noises from your old refrigerator.
Occasionally, a gurgling sound of the refrigerant flowing or the sound of
parts contracting or expanding may be heard.
These sounds are quite normal. If the refrigerator is rattling or making
vibrating noises, check that it is level and adjust levelling foot.
• The interior may need cleaning.
• Some foods may produce strong odours and need to be tightly sealed.
• Check that the refrigerator has enough clearance at the sides, back and
top. Refer to 'Installing Your New Appliance' in this manual.
• Refer to 'Temperature Control' section.
• The door may have been opened for too long or too frequently.
• Food containers or packaging may be holding the door.
• Refer to 'Temperature Control' section.
• Increase the temperature to avoid high energy consumption.
