## Questions about Rapidly flashing light above C.

### Can I clear Rapidly flashing light above C myself?

Transfer the food somewhere cool straight away. If it comes back, it needs a visit.

### Which fan has failed when the light above C flashes rapidly on my Asko?

A rapid flash reports the fan in the condenser compartment. A slower flash at the same spot would point at the fan inside the compartment.

### Should I unplug my Asko RFN23841 when the light above C flashes fast?

Yes, once the food has been moved somewhere cold, the manual advises unplugging it. The appliance cannot run normally until the condenser compartment fan is repaired.
