How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug the freezer before removing the control panel.

  • Inspect buttons: Check if any button feels stuck or does not click properly. Gently press each button several times.
  • Dry moisture: If condensation or spills have reached the panel, allow it to dry completely. You can remove the front panel and gently dry with a soft cloth.
  • Check ribbon cable: Disconnect and reconnect the ribbon cable between the keypad and display/PCB, ensuring a firm connection.
  • Test operation: Restore power and see if F0 clears and buttons respond normally.
  • Replace keypad: If certain buttons remain unresponsive or F0 persists, replace the Balay keypad / user interface overlay according to your model.

Incorrect handling of the control panel can cause further damage; if unsure, seek professional help.
