Cause
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 the coolant circulates
through the pipes.
Clicking sounds occur whenever the thermostat switches the
motor on or 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 solution
The appliance is uneven. Realign the appliance using a level, by
raising or lowering the adjustable feet underneath the appliance
or placing something underneath it.
The appliance is touching another machine or piece of furniture.
Move it away.
Drawers, baskets or shelves are jiggling or are stuck. Check all
removable parts and refit them correctly if required.
Bottles or containers are touching each other. Separate them a
little.
