Environmental Protection - Amica VKS 15293 W Gebrauchsanweisung

Certain sounds can be heard during normal use of the refrigerator, which do not affect its correct operation.
Sounds, which can be easily prevented:
lnoise caused by the appliance which is not level - adjust the position with the adjustable turn-in front feet.
Alternatively, place pads made of soft material under the rear rollers, especially when the appliance is placed
on tiles.
ltouching the adjacent piece of furniture - move the refrigerator away.
lcreaking of the drawers or shelves - take out and put back the drawer or shelf.
lsounds of clinking bottles - move bottles apart.
Sounds heard during normal use are mainly due to operation of the thermostat, compressor (switching on)
and cooling system (thermal expansion and contraction of the radiator caused by flow of the cooling agent).
Ozone layer protection

aming agents, which are

innovative technology and environmentally
friendly insulation help in reducing energy
consumption.
