Hello, not sure if anybody can help.
Our Daewoo FRN-U201A is only about one year old.
For several weeks now the fridge has not been chilling (feels like hardly at all) and we did have problems with the top of the freezer but since removing the rear bottom panel and hoovering the accumulated dust it seemed to improve.
Have tried; switching off over night & short periods to reset it, hoovered the dust from the back grill. Apart from that not sure what else to try.
Thanks in advance!

Thanks install monkey, however that was way too technical for me I'm afraid.

Unless there is an easier way to determine where the fault lays I will need to call somebody out. I meant to also mention there are clunking sounds occasionally coming from the machine also. I'm sure this does not help.

Cheers and I did appreciate the email!

“REF.TEMP” button at the same time.
2. How to stop

if its like mine without the water dispenser and the ice maker just 2 buttons in the fridge
check u can hear the fan running when u push the door switch with the door open
the clunk noise is normally when it just goes on defrost,and the defrost heater is warming up

Make one, you could size it as a blast chiller then, that way if beers warm up on way home from shop they'll soon be at drinking temp again!
