Water collects in the lower
part of the appliance
The water discharge opening
is clogged

opening (see the operating
manual – chapter entitled
”Defrosting the fridge”)
Internal air circulation
hindered
- place the food and conta-
iners in such a way as that
they do not touch the rear
wall of the fridge
The appliance generates
unusual noise
Incorrect levelling of the
appliance
- level the appliance properly
The appliance touches furni-
ture and/or other objects
- place the appliance at a
location that ensures proper
clearances around it
Certain sounds can be heard during normal use of the refrigerator, which do not affect its
correct operation.
Sounds, which can be easily prevented:
l
noise caused by the appliance which is not level - adjust the position with the adjustable turn-
in front feet. Alternatively, place pads made of soft material under the rear rollers, especially
when the appliance is placed on tiles.
l
touching the adjacent piece of furniture - move the refrigerator away.
l
creaking of the drawers or shelves - take out and put back the drawer or shelf.
l
sounds of clinking bottles - move bottles apart.
Sounds heard during normal use are mainly due to operation of the thermostat, compressor
(switching on) and cooling system (thermal expansion and contraction of the radiator caused
by flow of the cooling agent).
