Cooling in the refrigerators-freezers is enabled by a cooling
system with a compressor (with some appliances also a fan),
which emits a certain level of noise during operation. The level
of noise depends on installation, proper use, and appliance
age.
•
After appliance startup , the compressor may be somewhat
louder ( fl uid noise, noise caused by refrigerant fl owing
through the system). This is not a sign of malfunction and it
will not affect the appliance useful life. Eventually, the level of
this noise will be reduced.
• Occasionally, sudden or louder noise may appear during
appliance operation, which will appear uncommon; these are
mostly the result of improper installation:
- The appliance must be placed horizontally and fi rmly on a
solid base.
- The appliance should not be in contact with the wall or
adjacent elements.
- Make sure the appliance interior equipment is
appropriately fi tted and that the noise is not caused by
vibrating cans, bottles, or other containers in contact with
each other.
