OPEN
Remarks on the a liance o erating noise
As the appliance operates and goes through the freezing cycle, various noises will be emitted This is
normal and is not a sign of any malfunction
•As the refrigerant circulates around the refrigeration system, it causes sounds like murmuring,
bubbling, or rustling
•Louder sounds like popping or clicking may be heard for a short time as the refrigerator’s
compressor switches on
OPERATION PROBLEMS AND THEIR SOLUTIONS (TROUBLESHOOTING)
What if …
•The a liance is lugged in to the mains but it does not work and the electricity su ly
voltage indicator is not illuminated. Check that your house electricity supply installations are in order
Check that the plug is correctly inserted into the electricity supply socket
•The noise has become louder. Check that the appliance is standing stable, on a level place To make it
level, regulate the front feet Check if the appliance is not touching any furniture, and that no part of the
refrigeration system at the back part of the appliance body is touching the wall Pull the appliance away
from any furniture or walls Check that the cause of increased noise isn’t due to bottles, cans or dishes in
the appliance that might be touching each other
•When the a liance door is o ened, the rubber sealing gasket ulls out. The gasket is smeared
with sticky foodstuffs (fat, syrup) Clean the sealing gasket and the groove for it with warm water
containing soap or dishwashing detergent and wipe dry Put the rubber sealing gasket back into the
place

•The tem erature rise indicator light is illuminated red. This means the appliance is being
connected to the electricity supply for the first time or it was disconnected for a significant period (for
thawing or during an interruption to the electricity supply), the freezer compartment door is not closed or
is being frequently opened and closed, or a large amount of fresh food has been put in, and therefore the
temperature in the compartment has risen above -9 ºC When the temperature in the compartment
again falls below -9 ºC, the indicator light will go out
ATTENTION! If the tem erature indicator light does not go out (for reasons other than those
listed above) for longer than six hours, the com ressor is either working constantly or is not
functioning. You need to consult service eo le.
•High tem erature in a liance, the com ressor o eration auses are short. Ascertain whether
the appliance door is shutting tightly, whether the door wasn’t kept open longer than necessary when
