Noise

Cooling in this appliance is made possible by a compressor, which will produce certain noise levels.

• During the operation

 of the compressor

 

the noise of the liquid can be heard and when the

compressor is not operating, the refrigerant flow can be heard. This is a normal condition and it has
no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the appliance.

• After starting the appliance,

 the operation of the compressor and the refrigerant flow may be

louder, which does not mean that something is wrong with the appliance and it has no influence on
the lifetime of the appliance. Gradually the noise will reduce.

• Sometimes 

unusual and louder

 noise may be heard. This noise is often a consequence of

inadequate installation.

- The appliance must be level and installed on a firm solid base/floor.

- The appliance should not touch the wall or kitchen units standing next to it.

- Check the accessories on the interior of the appliance, they should be placed correctly in their

positions; also check bottles, tins, and other vessels are not touching each other causing rattling
and/or vibrations.
