Problem
The compressor
switches on too
frequently and for
longer.
Possible cause
The ventilation gaps in the
housing unit are covered or
dusty.
The refrigerator and freezer
compartment (depending
on model) doors have been
opened too frequently, or a
large amount of fresh food
has been placed inside
and/or frozen at the same
time.
The appliance and/or
freezer compartment
(depending on model) door
is not closed properly.
There might be a thick layer
of ice in the freezer
compartment.
The ambient temperature is
too high.
The higher the ambient
temperature, the longer the
compressor will run for.
The appliance is not
correctly installed in its
housing unit.
Problem solving guide
Remedy
^ Uncover the ventilation
gaps.
^ Dust the ventilation gaps
regularly.
^ Only open doors when
you need to and then only
for as long as necessary.
The appliance will regain the
required temperature after a
short while.
^ Close the door(s).
The appliance will regain the
required temperature after a
short while.
If a thick layer of ice has
built up, the cooling system
will not work efficiently and
energy consumption will
increase.
^ Defrost and then clean the
appliance.
^ See "Installation -
Location" for more
information.
^ See "Building in the
appliance".
