Replacing light bulb:

If there is a power failure

Try to avoid opening the doors during a power failure. Frozen food in the freezer compartment will not be affected if the power failure lasts shorter than the “Conservation Time from Failure (hours)” mentioned on the rating label.

If the power failure lasts longer than this amount of time, then the food should be checked and either consumed immediately or cooked and then re-frozen.

Normal Operating Noises

Various sounds you will hear are completely normal and are caused by 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 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 cycle and reduce when the appliance reaches the operating temperatures.

To avoid disturbing vibrations and unnecessary 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, bottle or dishes inside the refrigerator are not touching and rattling against each other.

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