What causes them
A humming noise is made by the motor (compressor). This noise
can get louder for brief periods when the motor switches on.
A gurgling noise can be heard when coolant is circulating
through the pipes.
Clicking sounds are made when the thermostat switches the
motor on and off.
You can sometimes just hear the sound of the fan inside the ap-
pliance.
A cracking sound can be heard when materials expand inside
the appliance.
Cause and remedy
The refrigeration appliance is uneven. Realign the appliance us-
ing a spirit level by raising or lowering the adjustable feet under-
neath the refrigeration appliance or placing something under-
neath it.
The refrigeration appliance is touching another appliance or
piece of furniture. Move it away.
Drawers, baskets or shelves are jiggling or are stuck. Check all
removable items and refit them correctly.
Bottles or containers are touching each other. Separate them.
