Troubleshooting

Fridge freezer not cooling

Check that the power cord is securely plugged in. Ensure the temperature settings are correct and that the doors are closing properly, without obstructions. Verify that the air vents inside are not blocked.

Excessive noise

Ensure the appliance is level using the adjustable feet. Check that it is not touching walls or cabinets. Internal components can sometimes produce normal operating sounds; refer to the manual for specific sounds.

Water dispenser not working

Confirm the water reservoir is filled. Ensure the dispenser lever or button is fully engaged. Check for any obvious blockages in the dispenser nozzle.

Ice build-up in freezer

While the unit is frost-free, ensure the freezer door is closing completely. Check for items blocking the door. If significant ice forms, manually defrost and check door seals.

Door alarm constantly sounding

Make sure the fridge and freezer doors are fully closed and sealed. Check for any obstructions preventing the doors from shutting tightly. Ensure nothing is stored too close to the door seals.
