Siemens KA..N double door Fridge Freezer (approx 6 years old): Can anyone help: Our freezer doesn't appear to be holding the correct temperature, even though the display is set at -18. Bread, fruit and a few other items are not freezing. Ice cubes have congealed and are small. Food in the bottom of the freezer appears cold. The fridge compartment seems fine. Can anyone please offer some advice? Thanks!
Look inside the back wall of the freezer to see if you have a layer of frost building. If yes this will indicate that the refrigerator is missing its defrost cycle. When you miss defrost it is usally number 1 the defrost control. Number 2 is the defrost heater has burned out and #3 the defrost thermostat. For you to look up the correct replacement parts you will need to find your refrigerators model number found most times inside the fresh food compartment.

Testimonial: "Many thanks for your advice! Yes there is a thin layer of ice building up on the back wall inside the bottom of the freezer. We've discovered we have insurance cover on the freezer so have now called an engineer through Siemens, so hopefully they will be able to repair the freezer when they attend next week! Thank you for your speedy advice - much appreciated! "
