TROUBLESHOOTING

• Check that the freezer is plugged into the mains socket
properly and that the outlet is switched on.
• Check the fuse is not blown.
• Check the circuit breaker is not tripped.
• Check that the freezer is placed on a level surface.
• Check that the appliance is not touching the wall or other
objects. Move the appliance slightly.
• Check that a component, e.g. a pipe, on the rear of the
appliance is not touching another part of the appliance
or the wall. If necessary, carefully bend the component
out of the way.
• Set the temperature control to a lower temperature and
allow several hours for the temperature to stabilize.

Warm air enters the freezer every time the door is
opened. Open the door less often.
• Check that the door is closed completely.
• Ensure that the door gasket does not seal properly.
• A large amount of warm or hot food might have been
stored recently. Wait until the freezer has reached its set
temperature.
Remove foreign matters on the door seal.
Heat the door seal and then cool it for restoration. (or blow it
with an electrical drier or use a hot towel for heating)
