What Happens If Something Goes Wrong - Zanussi ZVC 45 Manual

WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG?
Before contacting your local Zanussi Service Force
Centre, check the following points:
The appliance does not work...
Check that:
■ There is power at the socket.
■ Ensure that there is not a power cut by
checking the household lights.
■ The fuse has not blown.
■ The air circulation passages are not covered.
Vibration or abnormal noises...
■ You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds
when the refrigerant is pumped through the
coils of tubing at the rear, to the cooling
plate/evaporator or to the fixed freezer shelves.
When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is
being pumped round, and you will hear a
whirring or pulsating noise from the compressor.
A thermostat controls the compressor, and you
will hear a faint "click" when the thermostat
cuts in and out.
Other points to check...
Check that:
■ Have you turned the thermostat to the correct
setting?
■ Has door been left open causing the temperature
to rise?
■ Sometimes the freezer door will be difficult to
open shortly after you have closed it. Don't
worry this is due to pressure difference which
will quickly equalise and allow the door to open
normally.
If, after the above checks, there is still a fault, call
your local Zanussi Service Force Centre, whose
address can be found in the accompanying
Customer Care Booklet, and can also be found in
your local telephone directory under «Z».
In-guarantee customers should ensure that the above checks
have been made as the engineer will make a charge if the
fault is not a mechanical or electrical breakdown.
Please note that proof of purchase is required for any
in-guarantee service calls.
Before contacting your local Zanussi Service Force
Centre, make a note of the make, model and date
of purchase of your machine: the Service
Department require this information.
