Liebherr SBS26S1 SmartSteel Freestanding Pair of Columns Repair

Liebherr refrigerator

Most common issues on this model

  1. Drawer rails that drag under a full load
  2. IceMaker valve or tube restricted by scale
  3. Condenser dust forcing the compressor to run longer
  4. Door gaskets worn on the two wide doors
  5. LED lights failing in the freezer or refrigerator

Two freestanding columns, a CS 1311 refrigerator and a CS 1360 freezer, make up the SBS26S1, a 26-cubic-foot pair with SmartSteel doors listed in the 2013 guide. SmartSteel is a coated finish that resists fingerprints, and it sits on the front of two large doors that swing into the kitchen.

Because the refrigerator column is the larger one, its telescopic vegetable drawers carry real weight, and they are the first thing we test. After that come the gaskets, the condenser, and the freezer’s IceMaker, rated at 2.2 pounds in 24 hours with 3.3 pounds stored.

The LED lights get a quick check at the end. A price is given in writing before work begins, and repairs carry a 30-day workmanship warranty.

SBS26S1SBS26S1 questions
Does SmartSteel need special cleaning?

Use a soft cloth with mild soap and wipe with the grain. Harsh cleaners can dull the coating. We avoid abrasives on the door and leave the finish as we found it.

My vegetable drawers rattle when I open them. What is wrong?

The telescopic rails have loosened or collected grime. We clean and re-seat them, and replace a rail that has bent. The drawer should glide fully out and close with no noise.

Are the two columns serviced together?

They are separate cabinets with their own cooling, so a repair on one rarely touches the other. We do check the joint between them for gaps that let in warm air.
