When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).
Short cracking:
Heard when the thermostat switches the compressor on/off.-
Compressor noise
Normal motor noise:
This noise means that the compressor operates normally
The compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is first activated.
Bubbling noise and splash:
This noise is caused by the flow of the fridge freezer in the tubes of the system.
If your fridge is operating too loudly
To maintain the set cooling level, compressor may be activated from time to time. Noises
from your fridge at this time are normal and due to its function. When the required cooling
level is reached, noises will be decreased automatically.
If the noises persist;
• Is your appliance stable? Are the legs adjusted?
• Is there anything behind your fridge?
• Are the shelves or dishes on the shelves vibrating? Re-place the shelves and/or
dishes
if this is the case.
• Are the items placed on your fridge vibrating?
If you hear any other noises check that:
• The appliance is level
• Nothing is touching the rear of the appliance
• The objects on the appliance are vibrating.
Water flow noise:
(For no frost/frost free appliances) Normal flow noise of water flowing
to the evaporation container during defrosting. This noise can be heard during defrosting.
Air Blow Noise:
If the appliance has fan in freezer/cooler /bottom cabinet compartments.
This noise can be heard in fridges during normal operation of the system due to the
circulation of air.
If the appliance is making a noise:
The cooling gas which circulates in the refrigerator circuit may make a slight noise (bubbling
sound) even when the compressor is not running. This is normal. If these sounds are
different check that:
• The appliance is level,
• Nothing is touching the rear of the appliance,
• Items on or in the appliance are vibrating.
If there is water in the lower part of the refrigerator:
Check that:
The drain hole for the defrost water is not clogged (use thedefrost drain plug to clean the
drain hole).
