The refrigerator does not operate

• Is the refrigerator properly plugged in? Insert the plug to the wall socket.

• Is the fuse of the socket which your refrigerator is connected to or the main fuse blown out? Check the fuse. Condensation on the side wall of the fridge compartment. (MULTI ZONE, COOL CONTROL ve FLEXI ZONE)

• Very cold ambient conditions. Frequent opening and closing of the door. Highly humid ambient conditions. Storage of food containing liquid in open containers. Leaving the door ajar.

• Switching the thermostat to a colder degree.

• Decreasing the time the door left open or using it less frequently.

• Covering the food stored in open containers with a suitable material.

• Wipe the condensation using a dry cloth and check if it persists. Compressor is not running

• Protective thermic of the compressor will blow out during sudden power failures or plug-out plug-ins as the refrigerant pressure in the cooling system of the refrigerator has not been balanced yet.

• Your refrigerator will start running approximately after 6 minutes. Please call the service if your refrigerator does not startup at the end of this period.

• The fridge is in defrost cycle. This is normal for a full-automatically defrosting refrigerator. Defrosting cycle occurs periodically.

• Are the temperature adjustments correctly made? There is a power failure. Call your electricity supplier. The fridge is running frequently or for a long time.EN

• Your new refrigerator may be wider than the previous one. This is quite normal. Large refrigerators operate for a longer period of time.

• The ambient room temperature may be high.This is quite normal.

• The refrigerator might have been plugged in recently or might have been loaded with food. Cooling down of the refrigerator completely may last for a couple of hours longer.

• Large amounts of hot food might have been put in the refrigerator recently. Hot food causes longer running of the refrigerator until they reach the safe storage temperature.

• Doors might have been opened frequently or left ajar for a long time. The warm air that has entered into the refrigerator causes the refrigerator to run for longer periods. Open the doors less frequently.

• Freezer or fridge compartment door might have been left ajar. Check if the doors are tightly closed.

• The refrigerator is adjusted to a very low temperature. Adjust the refrigerator temperature to a warmer degree and wait until the temperature is achieved.

• Door seal of the fridge or freezer may be soiled, worn out, broken or not properly seated. Clean or replace the seal. Damaged/broken seal causes the refrigerator to run for a longer period of time in order to maintain the current temperature. Freezer temperature is very low while the fridge temperature is sufficient.

• The freezer temperature is adjusted to a very low temperature. Adjust the freezer temperature to a warmer degree and check. Fridge temperature is very low while the freezer temperature is sufficient.

• The fridge temperature is adjusted to a very low temperature. Adjust the fridge temperature to a warmer degree and check. Food kept in the fridge compartment drawers are freezing.

• The fridge temperature is adjusted to a very low temperature. Adjust the fridge temperature to a warmer degree and check. Temperature in the fridge or freezer is very high.

• The fridge temperature is adjusted to a very high degree. Fridge adjustment has an effect on the temperature of the freezer. Change the temperature of the fridge or freezer until the fridge or freezer temperature reaches to a sufficient level.

• The door might be left ajar. Close the door completely.

• Large amounts of hot food might have been put in the refrigerator recently. Wait until the fridge or freezer reaches the desired temperature.

• Refrigerator might have been plugged in recently. Cooling down of the refrigerator completely takes time because of the size. Noise similar to the sound of seconds heard from an analog clock is coming from the refrigerator.EN

• This noise is coming from the solenoid valve of the refrigerator. Solenoid valve functions for the purpose of ensuring coolant passage through the compartment which can be adjusted to cooling or freezing temperatures, and performing cooling functions. This is normal and is not fault cause. The operation noise increases when the refrigerator is running.

• The operating performance characteristics o f the refrigerator may change according to the changes in the ambient temperature. It is normal and not a fault. Vibrations or noise.

• The floor is not even or it is weak. The refrigerator rocks when moved slowly. Make sure that the floor is level, strong and capable to carry the refrigerator.

• The noise may be caused by the items put onto the refrigerator. Such items should be removed from the top of the refrigerator. There are noises like liquid spilling or spraying.

• Liquid and gas flows happen in accordance with the operating principles of your refrigerator. It is normal and not a fault. There is a noise like wind blowing.

• Air activators (fans) are used in order to allow the refrigerator to cool efficiently. It is normal and not a fault. Condensation on the inner walls of refrigerator.

• Hot and humid weather increases icing and condensation. It is normal and not a fault.

• The doors are ajar. Make sure that the doors are closed completely.

• Doors might have been opened very frequently or they might have been left open for along time. Open the door less frequently. Humidity occurs on the outside of the refrigerator or between the doors.
