Describe where the cooling result has changed
Explain whether the concern affects the whole cabinet, one shelf or an individual drawer. Include any temperature reading already available and identify its source, rather than treating the selected setting as a measurement. Say whether the change is constant or something you noticed after a particular event. These observations help define the complaint without assuming that the thermostat or another component has failed.
Water, ice and door closure are useful separate details
Report visible water beneath drawers, persistent ice or a door that no longer closes normally. Mention recent movement of the fridge and whether it sits behind a furniture front. Do not remove internal covers, force an iced-up drawer or pull the appliance out to find a label. If cooling is unreliable, arrange suitable storage for the contents while appointment suitability is checked.
Safe checks and deciding your next step
For checks that do not involve dismantling the appliance, read the fridge safety guidance. If you are weighing up a repair and a replacement, see what affects that decision. Your exact model handbook takes precedence over general guidance.
Details to include with this request

If you are considering a replacement
For a replacement integrated fridge, provide the cabinet opening, existing model and furniture-door fixing arrangement. The office needs those details as well as the proposed new appliance before confirming a fitting.

Bosch fridge repair questions
Should I book a fridge or fridge freezer enquiry?
Choose the appliance that best describes the complete unit and explain its layout. A separate fridge with a small internal ice box is worth identifying explicitly so the office can check the model and work required.
Does a working interior light mean the fridge is cooling?
No cooling conclusion should be drawn from the light alone. Describe the lighting and cooling observations separately, including any alert or display message.
What temperature-setting information should I give for a Bosch fridge repair?
Read the selected setting without moving the appliance and compare it with your model's handbook. Tell us if it was changed recently, and distinguish that setting from any separate temperature measurement you already have. Bosch identifies an accidentally high setting as one possible reason for poor cooling, not proof that it is the cause in your fridge. If storage is unreliable, protect the contents rather than relying on the displayed setting alone.
Why might food freeze inside the fridge compartment of my Bosch refrigerator?
Bosch identifies an excessively cold setting and food obstructing air vents as possible factors. Check the selected setting against your exact model's handbook and see whether packages block accessible vents; follow the model's storage guidance without removing covers. Note whether freezing affects one position or food throughout the compartment, and any recent setting or loading change. These observations do not prove a thermostat or sensor has failed. If freezing persists, send the E-Nr and those details so the office can confirm the assessment options.
