Normal operation sounds
In order to maintain a constant product temperature, the motor
starts at regular intervals. It sounds it makes are ordinary opera-
tion sounds, and they will automatically shorten as soon as the
product has reached the desired temperature. This includes the
following sounds:
Minor errors/disturbances
Errors may occur with the use of the product. Before contacting
the service department, please first check whether you can solve
them using the following instructions:
Hum
Comes from the engine. This hum may sometimes be stronger,
such as when the engine starts.
Gurgling sounds or slight hum
Comes from the coolant which circulates in the product.
Click
There is small click each time the electronics card starts or stops
the engine.
Light background noise
If the refrigerator has a fan (depending on model), the air that
circulates inside the product may create a light background noise.
Disposal of the old appliance
Before disposing an old appliance, please
make sure it’s inoperative and safe. Unplug
the appliance and remove or destroy all
of the springs, latches, or bolt-locks in or-
der to avoid the risk of child entrapment. It
must be noted that the refrigeration system
contains insulating gases and refrigerants,
which require specialized waste disposal.
The valuable materials contained in a re-
frigerator can be recycled. Contact your local
waste disposal center for proper disposal of an old appliance and
contact your local authority or your dealer if you have any ques-
tion. Please ensure that the pipe work of your refrigerator dose-
not get damaged prior to being picked up by the relevant waste
disposal center, and contribute to environmental awareness by
insisting on an appropriate, any-pollution method of disposal.
Disposal of the packaging of your new appliance
All the packaging materials employed in the package of your
new appliance may be disposed without any danger to the en-
vironment. The cardboard box may be broken or cut into smaller
pieces and given to a waste paper disposal service. The wrap-
ping foil is made of polyethylene and the polyethylene pads and
stuffing contain no fluorochloric hydrocarbon. All these valuable
materials may be taken to a waste collecting center and used
again after adequate recycling. Consult your local authorities for
the name and address of the waste materials collecting centers
and waste paper disposal services nearest to your house.
