E5 · Evaporator sensor fault

Safe first steps

1. Unplug the fridge freezer from the power outlet to ensure safety before proceeding.
2. Check the evaporator sensor for any visible damage or loose connections. If you find any issues, note them down.
3. If the sensor appears intact, clean any dust or debris around it to ensure proper function.
4. Plug the fridge freezer back in and monitor for the error code. If E5 reappears, the sensor likely needs replacement.
5. If the error persists after these checks, arrange for a service visit to replace the evaporator sensor.

When to stop

• Stop if you notice any burning smell or see smoke coming from the appliance — risk of fire.
