Safe first steps
- Monitor temperatures in both the fridge and freezer compartments and move sensitive food if cooling is unstable.
- Do not rely on repeated restarts as a permanent fix because they may only mask the fault temporarily.
- If the code returns after a short restart, book authorized service for the defrost system.
When to stop
- Stop if food temperatures rise outside a safe range.
- Stop if you notice a burning smell or see damaged wiring inside the appliance.
Likely cause
A fault in the defrost heater, sensor, or related wiring is likely.
