Try turning it upside down.  I've read another thread that that helps, and make sure that the control for using it on leccy is at 0.  Hope this helps

 Never use a knife to defrost, use a hair dryer

 We've got the same fridge. It's got to be totally level and has got to have good air circulation around it, ie; not pushed up against a wall. If it still doesn't work, try what foregolfblue suggests, turning it upside down for 2-3 minutes. If all these fail, then your cooling unit is knackered and costs £100+ to repair.
