COOLER 54 183000/en (03-09)
The refrigerator – freezer appliances are cooled by the refrigeration system with a compressor
(assisted by fan in certain models) whose operation may produce certain noise. The level of such
noise depends upon the location, correct use and age of the appliance.
• After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor (the refrigerant fl ow) may be
somewhat louder. This does not mean that something is wrong with the appliance, neither has
it any in
fl uence on the lifetime of the appliance. Gradually the noise is reduced and eventually
subsides.
• Sometimes the appliance produces unusual and stronger noise which is rather unusual for the
appliance. This noise is often the consequence of inadequate positioning of the appliance:
- The appliance should be placed and leveled fi rmly on solid base.
- It should not touch the wall or adjacent kitchen units standing next to it.
- Check whether the accessories in the interior of the appliance are placed correctly in their
positions; also check the bottles, tins and other vessels that might touch each other and rattle.
THE MANUFACTURER RESERVES THE RIGHT TO

FUNCTIONAL OPERATION OF THE APPLIANCE.
