Cooling of refrigerator-freezer appliances is provided by a compressor cooling system (for certain
appliances, also the fan). Operation of this system results in a certain amount of noise, the intensity 
of which depends upon the installation, correct use, and age of the appliance.
•   After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor (the refrigerant fl ow) may be somewhat 
louder. This does not mean that something is wrong with the appliance, nor does it have any infl uence on 
the lifetime of the appliance. Gradually the noise is reduced and eventually subsides.
•   Sometimes the appliance produces unusual and stronger noises. These noises are often the 
consequence of inadequate positioning of the appliance:
-  The appliance should be placed on a fl at and fi rm base.
-  It should not touch the wall or kitchen units standing next to it.
-  Check whether the accessories in the interior of the appliance are placed correctly in their 
positions; also check the bottles, cans and other vessels that might touch each other and rattle.

FUNCTIONAL OPERATION OF THE APPLIANCE.
