• Is your fridge filled excessively?
• Is there adequate distance between your fridge and the rear and side walls?
• Is the ambient temperature within the range of values specified in the operating
manual?
If the food in your refrigerator compartment is over cooled
• Is the temperature adjustment right? (Is the thermostat knob is on "5" position?)
• Are there many food recently put inside the freezer compartment? If so, your fridge
may over cool the food inside the refrigerator compartment as it will operate longer
to cool these food.
If your fridge is operating too loudly;
To maintain the set cooling level, compressor may be activated from time to time. Noises
from your fridge at this time are normal and due to its function. When the required cooling
level is reached, noises will be decreased automatically. If the noises persist;
• Is your appliance stable? Are the legs adjusted?
• Is there anything behind your fridge?
• Are the shelves or dishes on the shelves vibrating? Re-place the shelves and/or
dishes if this is the case.
• Are the items placed on your fridge vibrating?
Normal Noises;
Cracking (Ice cracking) Noise:
• During automatic defrosting.
• When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).
Short cracking: Heard when the thermostat switches the compressor on/off.
Compressor noise (Normal motor noise): This noise means that the compressor
operates normally Compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is
activated.
Bubbling noise and splash: This noise is caused by the flow of the refrigerant in the
tubes of the system.
Water flow noise: Normal flow noise of water flowing to the evaporation container
during defrosting. This noise can be heard during defrosting.
Air Blowing Noise (Normal fan noise): This noise can be heard in No-Frost fridge
during normal operation of the system due to the circulation of air.
If humidity builds up inside the fridge;
• Are all food packed properly? Are the containers dried before placing them in the
fridge?
• Are the fridge doors opened frequently? Humidity of the room gets in the fridge when
the doors are opened. Humidity build up will be faster when you open the doors
more frequently, especially if the humidity of the room is high.
• Building up of water drops on the rear wall after automatic defrosting is normal. (in
