There are basic things you need to look and check before trying to initiate a technician call out for warranty circumstances.

Noise

If you unit has become noisy, please check the following:

- Can you ascertain exactly where the noise is coming from? It may be a loose screw or part of the fridge that is now vibrating and is easy to fix.

Not Cooling

So all of a sudden unit has stopped cooling.

- Does the compressor run? Make sure compressor is running, if it is running and you have a warm fridge then there is a gas problem and technician will be needed.

- Check fan inside unit (if applicable). If fan inside unit is not working then air won't be being distributed evenly, a lot of areas will not be as cold as some, and rear plate may ice up.

- Have you got the thermostat set correct? Or has it been altered, remember the higher the number you set this on the colder the fridge will be.

- Is your door sealing properly, check all the way around door seal to make sure it is sealing correct on fridge body, small gaps won't effect cooling.
