INFORMATION ABOUT
APPLIANCE NOISE
Cooling in refrigerator/freezers is made possible by a system that includes a
compressor
(and a fan with some appliances), which generates some noise. The level of
noise depends
on installation, proper use, and age of the appliance.
•
After connecting the appliance to the power line, compressor operation, or the sound
of flowing liquid, may be somewhat louder. This is not a sign of malfunction and it will
not affect the useful life of the appliance. In time, appliance operation and this noise will
become quieter.
•
Sometimes, unusual or loud noises may be heard during appliance operation; these are
mostly the result of improper installation:
-
The appliance must stand level and stable on a solid base.
-
The appliance must not be in contact with a wall or adjacent furniture.
-
Make sure the interior equipment sits firmly in its place and that the noise is not
caused by cans, bottles or other containers placed next to each other.
•
Due to the higher workload on the cooling system when the door is opened more
frequently or for a longer time, when a large amount of fresh food is introduced, or
when intensive freezing or cooling functions are activated, the appliance can temporarily
generate more noise.
WE RESERVE THE RIGHT TO MAKE CHANGES THAT DO NOT AFFECT THE
FUNCTIONALITY OF THE APPLIANCE.
