Loud noises.
• Check that the food is level and the freezer is not unstable.

Advice concerning heat:
• The body of the refrigerator may give off heat during operation, especially in summer.
This heat is caused by radiation from the condenser and is a normal phenomenon.
• Condensation: condensation will be spotted on the exterior surface and the seals of the
freezer door when the ambient humidity is high; this is a normal phenomenon and the
condensation can be wiped off with a dry cloth.
• Air flow noise: coolants circulating in the refrigeration circuit produce noises and rumblings
which are normal and do not affect the cooling effect.
• Humming sound: a humming sound is produced when the compressor is running, and is
particularly noticeable when it starts or stops.
• Clicking: the solenoid valve or electric switching valve will make a clicking sound; it is a
normal phenomenon which does not affect the operation.
