The refrigerator is excessively noisy:
• Is the appliance in contact with other furniture or objects?
• Do the shelves or containers on the shelves vibrate?
• Are the pipes at the back touching or vibrating?
If the appliance door has been left open for a while or if large amounts of food have been stored, the
motor will run longer in order to cool down the interior of the appliance.
Normal noises:
Ice breaking noise:
• During automatic defrosting
• When the device cools or heats up (due to expansion of the material of which it is made).
Brief ice breakage: This is heard when the thermostat switches on/off.
Compressor noise (normal motor noise): This means that the compressor is working normally. The com-
pressor emits more noise for some time when switching on.
Noise of bubbles and splashes: This noise is caused by the refrigerant flowing in the system's piping.
Noise of water flowing: Noise of normal flow of water running into the evaporation container during the
defrosting process. This noise is heard during the defrosting process.
Noise of air blowing (normal fan noise): This noise is heard in No-Frost refrigerators during normal system
operation due to the airflow.
Remember
Motor running time depends on various factors: frequency of door opening, amount of food stored, room
temperature, thermostat settings.
If, after performing the above checks, your appliance still does not work properly, contact the After-sales
Service, explain the problem, specifying the model and appliance service number (stated on the data
plate).
If the refrigerator temperature is too high
• Is the appliance installed near a heat source?
• Are the refrigerator controls correctly set?
• Has a large amount of food been placed in the appliance?
• Make sure the doors are not opened too frequently.
• Check that the doors close properly.
• Make sure the air vents inside the compartment are not blocked and thus preventing the circulation of
cold air.
If there is moisture build-up
• Make sure that the food is properly packaged. Dry any wet food containers before placing them in the
refrigerator.
• Make sure the doors are not opened too frequently. When the door is opened, humidity from the
room air enters the refrigerator. The more often the door is opened, the faster humidity builds up,
especially when the room itself is very humid.
• If the room is very humid, it is normal for moisture to build up inside the refrigerator.
• It is normal for droplets of water to form on the rear wall after the automatic defrost cycle.
The doors do not close or do not open correctly
• Make sure no food packages are blocking the door.
• Check that the door trays, shelves and drawers are not positioned incorrectly.
• Make sure the door seals are not dirty or sticky.
• Make sure the appliance is level.
