Noise
Cooling in refrigerating-freezing appliances is enabled by the refrigerating system
including the compressor, which produces noise. How noisy the appliance is
depends on where it is placed, how it is used and how old the appliance is.
• During the operation of the compressor, a liquid sound is heard and when
the compressor is not operating, a refrigerant flow is heard. This is a
normal condition and it has no influence whatsoever on the lifetime of the
appliance.
• After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor and the
refrigerant flow may be louder and this does not mean something is wrong
with the appliance. The noise will reduce gradually. This will not affect the
lifetime of the appliance.
• Sometimes strong noises occur which are unusual for the appliance. This
noise is often a consequence of inappropriate placement. To avoid the
noise make sure the appliance is placed and leveled firmly on a solid
base. Make sure the appliance is not touching the wall or kitchen units
standing next to it. And always make sure you check the accessories in
the interior of the appliance; they should be placed correctly in their
positions. Check the bottles, cans and other vessels that might touch each
other and rattle.
Check the plug and fuse.
