Possible Causes

Built-in condenser in side walls operating at high load, Poor ventilation around cabinet, High ambient temperature

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: No internal work is required, but be cautious of hot surfaces.

Steps:

  • 1. Check clearances: Ensure installation meets Liebherr's minimum side and rear clearances for built-in or freestanding models.
  • 2. Improve airflow: Do not block ventilation grills; consider adding ventilation openings in cabinetry.
  • 3. Monitor temperature: Some warmth is normal, but if surfaces are too hot to touch comfortably, reduce ambient temperature or load and consult a technician.
