AEG ARCTIS Operating Instructions Manual

Symptom

Heavy build up of frost,

possibly also on the door

seal.

Unusual noises.

The compressor does not

start immediately after

pressing the FROSTMATIC

button or after changing

the temperature setting.

Important: regularly check on the red temperature pilot light and tem-

perature display to establish that the storage temperature is being

maintained.

Noises during Operation

The following noises are characteristic of refrigeration appliances:

• Clicks

Whenever the compressor switches on or off, a click can be heard.

• Humming

As soon as the compressor is in operation, you can hear it humming.

• Bubbling/Splashing

When refrigerant flows into thin tubes, you can hear bubbling or

splashing noises. Even after the compressor has been switched off,

this noise can be heard for a short time.

Possible Cause

Door seal is not air tight

(possibly after reversing

the door).

Appliance is not level.

The appliance is touching

the wall or other objects.

A component, e.g. a pipe,

on the rear of the appliance

is touching another part of

the appliance or the wall.

This is normal, no error has

occurred.

Remedy

Carefully warm the leaking

sections of the door seal

with a hair dryer (on a

cool setting). At the same

time shape the warmed

door seal by hand such

that it sits correctly.

Readjust the feet.

Move the appliance

slightly.

If necessary, carefully bend

the component out of the

way.

The compressor starts after

a period of time.
