Normal operating noises

Various functional noises are completely normal due to the operation of the cooling system of your appliance;

•Gurgling, hissing, boiling or bubbling noises are caused by the refrigerant, circulating inside the cooling system. These noises can still be heard for a short period of time after the compressor shuts off.

•Sudden, sharp cracking or popping noises are caused by the expansion and contraction of the inside walls or some components inside the cabinets.

•Buzzing, whirring, pulsating or high-pitched humming noises are caused by the compressor. These noises are slightly louder at the start-up of the compressor and reduce when the appliance reaches the operating temperatures.

Also to avoid disturbing vibrations and noises make sure that;

•Your refrigerator is standing level on all four feet.

•Your refrigerator is not in contact with the walls, surrounding objects or kitchen cabinets and furniture.

•Cans, bottles or dishes inside the refrigerator are not touching and hitting each other.

•All shelves and bins are mounted correctly inside the refrigerator cabinets and doors.
