Possible Causes

How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Sealed system diagnosis and repair require specialized tools and certification.
User checks:
- Clean condenser: Pull the unit out and thoroughly clean the condenser coils and ventilation grills.
- Check door seal: Ensure the door gasket seals tightly all around. Replace if cracked or deformed.
- Reduce load: Avoid overloading the cabinet and allow space for air circulation between bottles.
- Monitor frost pattern: If you can see the evaporator, a small patch of frost only near the inlet and the rest warm suggests a refrigerant or blockage issue.
- Call a technician: If basic cleaning and sealing do not restore proper cooling, contact a Neff-authorized technician for leak detection and sealed system repair.
