What to do if… Possible causes Solutions

Before contacting the After-sales Service, try to solve the problem by following the advice below.

The appliance is excessively noisy

Noises from appliances are normal since the fans and compressors for controlling its operation switch on and off automatically, for example:

• hissing when the appliance is switched on the first time or after a long period.

• gurgling when the refrigerant enters the pipes.

• humming when the water valve or fan are activated.

• rattling when the compressor starts up or when the ice drips in the bucket.

• a sudden thud when the compressor starts up or stops.

Some noises can be reduced by:

• levelling the appliance and installing it on a flat surface,

• separating and preventing contact of the appliance with the cabinets,

• making sure the inside parts are correctly positioned,

• making sure the bottles and containers are not touching each other.

The control panel is off and/or the appliance is not working

There may be a problem with the power supply to the appliance

Check that:

• there has not been a power failure.

• the plug is inserted properly into the power socket and the bipolar mains switch is in the right position (i.e. power supplied to the appliance).

• the safety protection devices in the domestic electrical system are working.

• the power cable isn't broken.

• the voltage is correct.

The "Standby" (depending on the model) or "Eco mode" function may have been enabled.

• Disable the function (see the Quick Start Guide).

If the motor seems to run too much

On hot days or if the room is warm, the motor naturally runs longer. Furthermore, if the appliance door has been left open for a while or if large amounts of food have been stored, the motor will run longer in order to cool down the interior of the appliance.

Avoid locations in direct sunlight or near a source of heat.

There may be dust or fluff in the condenser.

Remove the front plinth (see installation manual) and clean the condenser using a vacuum cleaner.

The doors may not be closed properly or the seals may not be intact.

Check that the doors are closed properly and that the door seals do not allow any air infiltration.

Excessive moisture inside the compartments.

If the room is very humid, it is normal for moisture to build up inside the appliance.

Install the appliance in a dry, well-ventilated place.

The air ducts may be blocked.

Make sure the air ducts inside the compartments are not blocked, as this prevents the circulation of cold air.

It is not cold enough inside the compartments

There could be various causes

Check that:

• the doors close properly.

• the appliance is not near a heat source.

• the air ducts inside the compartments are not blocked, as this prevents the circulation of cold air.

• the "Vacation mode" function is not enabled (see Quick Start Guide) If necessary, lower the temperature.

The area in contact with the seal is hot.

This is normal in hot weather and when the compressor is running. No action is required.

If the doors do not open and close properly.

The door seals may be dirty or sticky. Clean the seals.

The appliance may not be level. If necessary, level the appliance (see Installation manual).

The internal light is not working.

The "Standby" function may have been enabled (depending on the model).

Disable the function (see the Quick Start Guide).

The bulb may be burnt out.

Replace the bulb (see Instructions for Use, section "Maintenance and Cleaning").

What to do if… Possible causes Solutions

The red Blackout Alarm LED and the freezer temperature display are blinking, and the acoustic signal is sounding (if provided).

Blackout Alarm. This alarm activates when there has been an extended power failure causing the freezer compartment temperature to rise. The value flashing on the freezer display is the highest temperature reached during the power failure.

The "Water filter" symbol has changed colour.

Water filter running out/exhausted (where provided).

Replace the filter (see the Quick Start Guide). To replace the filter, refer to the Instructions for Use.

If the appliance has a water and ice dispenser:

The automatic ice-maker does not work.

A new appliance takes about a night to reach the ideal temperature for producing ice.

Wait for the time required for the temperature inside the freezer to reach the set value.

The automatic ice maker may not be enabled (in some models it can be disabled).

Refer to the Quick Start Guide to enable the automatic ice maker again (on some models only).

Water may not reach the automatic ice maker.

Check that the product is connected to the mains water supply and that the water tap is open.

The water filter may be clogged or installed incorrectly.

Refer to the filter installation instructions to ensure that the filter was installed correctly and is not clogged. If installation or clogging is not a problem, call qualified personnel.

The dispenser does not dispense ice when the lever is pressed.

This is normal when the freezer door is open, or if the ice bucket is not installed correctly.

Close the freezer door and/or check that the ice bucket is installed correctly.

The "Child Safety" or "Ice/water dispenser lock" function may have been enabled.

Disable the function (see the Quick Start Guide).

Ice cubes may be stuck because the ice dispenser has not been used for some time: The dispenser may not have been used for extended periods, causing the ice cubes to stick together.

Change the ice selection from "ice cubes" to "crushed ice" or vice versa (in some models only), so as to remove any ice blocks. If the dispenser continues not to dispense ice, wait for two minutes and then repeat this operation.

Shake the ice bucket to separate the cubes and increase the holding capacity. It is advisable to throw away the old ice and make new ice.

The ice dispenser lever may have been pressed for too long. Wait about 3 minutes for the dispenser motor to reset

The dispenser does not dispense water when the lever is pressed.

Disable the function (see the Quick Start Guide).

The water filter may be clogged or installed incorrectly.
