7 Malfunction

Your appliance is designed and manufactured for a long life span and reliable operation. If a malfunction nonetheless occurs during operation, check whether it is due to a handling error. In this case you will have to be charged for the costs incurred, even during the warranty period. You may be able to rectify the following faults yourself:

Appliance does not work.

→ The appliance is not switched on.
Switch on the appliance.
The power plug is not properly inserted in the wall socket.
Check power plug.
The fuse of the wall socket is not in order.
Check fuse.

The compressor runs for a long time.

The compressor switches to a low speed when little cold is needed. Although the running time is increased as a result, energy is saved.
This is normal in energy-saving models.

SuperCool is activated.
The compressor runs for longer in order to rapidly cool the food. This is normal.

The inverter regularly flashes every 15 seconds*.

→ The inverter is equipped with a diagnostic LED.
The flashing is normal.

Excessive noise.

Speed-controlled* compressors may produce varying running noise due to different speed steps.
The sound is normal.

The sound is normal.
The ambient temperature is too high.
Solution: (see 1.2)

A low hum.

The sound is produced by air flow noise of the fan.
The sound is normal.

Vibratory noise.
