Normal Sounds
Temperature Alarm
Door Ajar Alarm
If the interior temperature is higher than 73°F (23°C), “HI” is shown on the temperature control panel and
the temperature alarm will sound continuously after one (1) hour. This indicates that the inner temperature
is too high. If the inner temperature is lower than 32°F (0°C), “LO” is shown on the temperature display
panel and the temperature alarm will sound continuously after fifteen minutes. If one of these situations
occurs please reference the troubleshooting section found in this manual or contact Avallon for support.
This refrigerator includes a door ajar alarm, which will sound if the door is open for more than five (5)
minutes. Leaving the door open for extended periods of time will cause poor cooling performance and
may shorten the life of the refrigerator. Keep the door closed as much as possible.
Your new refrigerator may make noise during normal operation. Most of these sounds are normal. Hard
surfaces like the floor and walls can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are.
The following describes several sounds you may hear and what may be making them:
• Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water line. Items stored on top of
the refrigerator can also make noises.
• The high efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound.
• Water running from the evaporator to the water bin may make a splashing sound.
• As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your
refrigerator.
• You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the condenser fan.
Defrosting
Note that under most refrigerating settings, the unit will automatically defrost under most ambient
conditions. However, on colder settings, some frost may build up. Additionally, the more humid the
ambient conditions, the more frost may build up. Keep the door closed as much as possible and avoid
opening the door unnecessarily to minimize frost build-up.
If frost is preventing the door from closing properly, you may need to power the unit off until the frost
melts. Use a soft absorbent towel to dry the unit.
Never attempt to remove frost with a sharp object!
