•
Clean the condenser (rear of the refrigerator) periodically to prevent the appliance from
losing efficiency;
•
If the refrigerator is to be out of use for a long period, it is best to empty it and switch it off;
•
Thaw frozen foods in the body of the refrigerator to exploit the cold stored in the frozen
foods, which will be transferred to the refrigerator if this procedure is used.
Operating noise
•
The refrigerator and freezer are cooled by means of a compression system. To maintain the
pre-set temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer sections, the compressor comes into
operation in response to the level of cooling required and may operate continuously if
necessary. When the compressor starts up a humming sound will be heard, tending to drop
in volume after a few minutes.
•
Another normal refrigerator operating noise is a gurgling due to the coolant flowing through
the pipes in the circuit. This noise is perfectly normal and does not mean that the appliance
is malfunctioning. If it is over-loud, there may be other causes. In this case, check that:
-
the refrigerator is properly levelled on the floor and does not vibrate when the compressor
is in operation: adjust the feet provided as appropriate;
-
The drawers, shelves and door boxes are correctly fitted and securely in place: fit correctly;
-
Bottles and containers on the various shelves are stable and not touching: the vibration
due to operation of the compressor may generate some noise;
-
Do not place kitchen units or other appliances so that they are touching the refrigerator.
