How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Unplug the refrigerator before cleaning coils or moving the unit.
- Clean condenser coils: Pull the fridge away from the wall, remove the rear lower panel, and vacuum or brush dust from the condenser coils and fan.
- Improve ventilation: Ensure there is adequate clearance around the sides, top, and back as specified in the Grundig manual.
- Inspect door gaskets: Look for cracks or gaps. Replace worn gaskets with Grundig-compatible seals.
- Check temperature settings: Avoid setting temperatures colder than necessary. Adjust to recommended settings and monitor.
