Information on appliance noise

Cooling in the refrigerators-freezers is enabled by a cooling system with a compressor (with
some appliances also a fan), which emits a certain level of noise during operation. The level of
noise depends on installation, proper use, and appliance age.
• After appliance startup, the compressor may be somewhat louder (fl uid noise, noise caused
by refrigerant fl owing through the system). This is not a sign of malfunction and it will not
affect the appliance useful life. Eventually, the level of this noise will be reduced.
• Occasionally, sudden or louder noise may appear during appliance operation, which will
appear uncommon; these are mostly the result of improper installation:
- The appliance must be placed horizontally and fi rmly on a solid base.
- The appliance should not be in contact with the wall or adjacent elements.
- Make sure the appliance interior equipment is appropriately fi tted and that the noise is not
caused by vibrating cans, bottles, or other containers in contact with each other.

NOT AFFECT THE APPLIANCE FUNCTIONALITY.
