Check the TROUBLESHOOTING section if you have any problems with these warning symbols.
Freezer High Temperature Warning symbol and buzzer
The freezer High Temperature warning symbol will come on when the fridge freezer is first switched
on, or when the temperature inside the compartment rises above the correct storage temperature. It
will go out as soon as the compartment returns to its normal storage temperature.
The symbol may come on for a short period when opening the freezer door to load or unload food, in
this case storage times will not be affected.
A buzzer will sound when the freezer High
Temperature warning symbol comes on. You can
silence the buzzer by pressing the cancel button and
the bell symbol will go out on the display. The freezer
High Temperature warning symbol will remain on the
display until the compartment returns to its normal
storage temperature.
Note: To avoid unnecessary concern the buzzer is automatically silenced the very first time
you switch the fridge freezer on.
If there has been a power cut resulting in a rise in freezer compartment temperature, the freezer High
Temperature warning symbol will come on as soon as the mains power returns. It will go out as soon
as the compartment returns to its normal storage temperature.
Avoid opening compartment doors during a power cut, the freezer insulation will continue to protect your
food. However, if the power cut continues there is a risk of your frozen food beginning to defrost due to the
rise in temperature (see FOOD DEFROST ALERT below).
Food Defrost Alert symbol and buzzer
The Food Defrost Alert symbol will come on when the mains power has been restored after a power
cut and the freezer compartment has returned to its normal storage temperature.
The Food Defrost Alert symbol will be on the display,
along with a reading of the temperature the freezer
compartment had risen to eg. -2˚C
This warns you that there has been a power cut, during which the freezer compartment temperature
rose to an unsafe level, allowing partial defrosting of stored food.
If this symbol is on the display, food should be either cooked and eaten within 24 hours, cooked and
refrozen or thrown away.
The Food Defrost Alert symbol is a particularly useful warning if you were out at the time of the
power cut. The symbol will remain on until cancelled manually by pressing the Food Defrost Alert
button. On cancelling the Food Defrost Alert symbol, the display will revert to the normal storage
temperature.
