What to do when Check condenser shows on the home appliance

Before you book,
in this order.

Each step comes from Bertazzoni's own guidance for Check condenser on its home appliances. Follow it to the end: the last card says whether this is a visit.

01

Turn the column off with the Unit button and wait about 30 minutes for the condenser to cool.

02

Remove the grille under the door and vacuum the fins with a soft brush attachment, wearing gloves.

03

Restart the column and touch reset in the maintenance menu; book a visit if the condenser is heavily caked or the column keeps running warm.

Cleared?

The reminder is gone from the display, the filter, the screen or the tub has been cleaned or swapped, and the appliance runs a full cycle without calling for it again. A clean-filter light or a descale prompt that returns in days rather than months usually means the part it watches is fouling faster than normal, so mention that when you book.

What not to do

Check Cond runs on a calendar, not a dust reading, so it appears on schedule whether the coil is clean or not.

What you may
notice with it.

The home appliance problems Check condenser tends to arrive with. Answer these at the home appliance before anyone is booked.

All problems

No service indicated

Nothing to service.

Nothing has broken; the appliance has been counting hours, cycles or gallons and is asking for its routine care. A refrigerator lights a filter icon after about six months of water, a front-load washer suggests a tub-clean cycle after a set number of loads, a steam oven or a dishwasher asks for descaling or rinse aid, and some dryers remind you to check the exhaust. Do the task the reminder names, reset it the way the manual describes, and write the date in the service record.

In Bertazzoni's own words

The required cleaning every 6 months is denoted by an audible and visual message on the display.

Questions
about Check condenser.

Can I clear Check condenser myself?
Turn the column off with the Unit button and wait about 30 minutes for the condenser to cool. If it comes back, it needs a visit.
How often does this reminder appear once switched on?
Every six months, following the maintenance-settings interval.
Can the reminder be disabled on a Bertazzoni freezer column?
Yes, through the Off option in the maintenance settings, though regular cleaning is still worthwhile without it.
Why does dust on the condenser matter for a freezer column?
The condenser is where heat removed from inside the cabinet is released, and dust makes the compressor run longer to hold the set temperature.

Back to your everyday

Still showing Check condenser?

A booking goes further when it has the reminder or code as shown, the model number from the rating plate, and a word on when that filter, screen or tub was last cleaned. With those three, the office can pack the right filter or cleaner for your appliance.
