BEVERAGE CENTER USE

Normal Sounds

Your new beverage center may make sounds that your old one didn’t make. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal. Hard surfaces, such as the flooring and surrounding structures, can make the sounds seem louder. The following describes the kinds of sounds and what may be making them.

■Your beverage center is designed to run more efficiently to keep your food items at the desired temperatures and to minimize energy usage. The high efficiency compressor and fans may cause your beverage center to run longer than your old one. You may also hear a pulsating or high-pitched sound from the compressor or fans adjusting to optimize performance.

■Rattling noises may come from the flow of refrigerant or items stored inside the beverage center.

■As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your beverage center.

■You may hear water running into the drain pan when the beverage center is defrosting.

■You may hear clicking sounds when the beverage center starts or stops running.

Usingthe Control

For your convenience, your beverage center control is preset at the factory. When you first install your beverage center, make sure that the control is still preset to the mid-setting as shown.

Adjusting Controls

The mid-setting indicated in the previous section should be correct for normal usage. The control is set correctly when beverages are as cold as you like.

If you need to adjust the temperature, wait at least 24 hours between adjustments and then recheck the temperature.

To make the beverage center colder, adjust the control to the next higher setting. To make the beverage center less cold, adjust the control to the next lower setting.

Temperature Separator (Temperature Display)

The temperature separator displays the current temperatures (Fahrenheit or Celsius) for the upper, middle and lower zones (compartments) of the beverage center. To adjust the temperature settings, see “Adjusting Controls” earlier in this section.
