Smeg 142468 manual Noise level

Noise level

Cooling of refrigerator-freezer appliances is provided by compressor cooling system (for certain appliances also the fan). Operation of this system results in certain noise, the intensity of which depends upon the installation, correct use, and age of the appliance.

•After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor (the refrigerant flow) may be somewhat louder. This does not mean that something is wrong with the appliance, neither has it any influence on the lifetime of the appliance. Gradually the noise is reduced and eventually subsides.

•Sometimes the appliance produces unusual and stronger noise which is rather unusual for the appliance. This noise is often the consequence of inadequate positioning of the appliance:

-The appliance should be placed on a flat and firm base.

-It should not touch the wall or adjacent kitchen units standing next to it.

-Check whether the accessories in the interior of the appliance are placed correctly in their positions; also check the bottles, tins and other vessels that might touch each other and rattle.
