Check whether the metal grille (heat
exchanger) at the rear of the ap-
pliance has become dusty.
The refrigerator and freezer section
doors have been opened too fre-
quently, or a large amount of fresh
food has been put in at the same
time for freezing.
Check that the doors have been
properly closed.
Check to see whether a thick layer of
ice has built up in the freezer sec-
tion. If it has then the freezer section
will need defrosting.
Is the room temperature lower than
the ambient temperature for which
the appliance is designed?
Increase the room temperature, or
switch on the winter setting.
Operating in a room which is too cold
will cause the cooling system to switch
off for too long causing the freezer sec-
tion to become too warm.
Use a blunt instrument, e.g. a spoon
handle or plastic scraper to carefully
prise it apart.
Check whether the freezer section
door closes properly.

Defrost and then clean the freezer
section.
Too thick a layer of ice reduces effi-
ciency and increases energy consump-
tion.
Has the contact switch got stuck?
Make sure that the temperature dial
is not pointing to the "0" position.
If it is not pointing to the "0" position
the bulb is defective:
Disconnect the appliance from the
mains. Switch off at the wall and with-
draw the plug from the socket (pull
by the plug not the cable), or discon-
nect the mains fuse or remove the
screw-out fuse in countries where
this is applicable.
Reach into the back of the light
cover, press upwards at the side
and then pull the cover off
Replace the bulb.
Bulb specification:
220 – 240 V, max. 15 W, E 14 fitting
Push the cover securely back into
position.
