Troubleshooting en Fault Cause and troubleshooting A layer of frost forms on the back wall of the refrigerator com- partment. Always leave some space between the food and the interior walls. Side panels of the ap- pliance are warm. Not a fault. The side panels contain pipes which heat up during the cooling process. Units touching the appli- ance will not be damaged by the heat. No action required. A warning signal sounds and "alarm" flashes. Different causes are possible. Press the temperature setting button (freezer com- partment). The alarm is switched off. The appliance door is open. Close the appliance door. External ventilation openings are covered up.
Remove any obstructions from in front of the ex- ternal ventilation openings. Larger quantities of fresh food have been put in. Do not exceed the max. freezing capacity. "Freezing capacity", Page 16 The set temperature is not reached. Fully automatic de- frosting no longer works. The freezer compartment door was open for a long time. The evaporator (refrigeration unit) in the noFrost system is heavily iced up. Requirement: Store the frozen food well insulated in a cool place. 1. Switch off the appliance. Page 14 2. Disconnect the appliance from the mains. Unplug the appliance from the mains or switch off the circuit breaker in the fuse box. 3. Move the appliance away from the wall. 4.
Leave the appliance door open. After approx. 20 minutes, the condensation starts to run into the evaporation pan at the rear of the appli- ance. Fig. 9 5. To prevent the evaporation pan from overflowing, mop up the condensation water with a sponge. The evaporator is defrosted if no more condensation water runs into the evaporation pan. 6. Clean the interior of the appliance. Page 18 7. Switch the appliance back on. Page 13 21
