CHAPTER -5: TROUBLESHOOTING

time are normal and due to its function. When the required cooling level is reached, noises will decrease automatically.

If the noises persist;

• Is your appliance stable? Are the legs adjusted?

• Is there anything behind your fridge?

• Are the shelves or dishes on the shelves vibrating? Re-place the shelves and/or dishes if this is the case.

• Are items placed on your fridge vibrating?

Your refrigerator is operating noisily

The following noises can be heard during normal operation of the appliance.

Cracking (Ice cracking) Noise:

• During automatic defrosting.

• When the appliance is cooled or warmed (due to expansion of appliance material).

Short cracking: Heard when the thermostat switches the compressor on/off.

Compressor noise (Normal motor noise): This noise means that the compressor operates normally. The

compressor may cause more noise for a short time when it is activated.

Bubbling noise and splash: This noise is caused by the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of the system.

Water flow noise: Normal flow noise of water flowing to the evaporation container during defrosting. This noise

can be heard during defrosting.

Air Blowing Noise (Normal fan noise): This noise can be heard in a No-Frost fridge during normal operation of

the system due to the circulation of air.

There is a build-up of humidity inside the fridge

Check if:

• All food is packed properly. Containers must be dry before being placed in the fridge.

• The fridge doors are opened frequently. Humidity of the room will enter the fridge each time the doors are

opened. Humidity increases faster if the doors are opened frequently, especially if the humidity of the room is

high.

• There is a build-up of water droplets on the rear wall. This is normal after automatic defrosting (in Static Models).

The doors are not opening or closing properly

Check if:

• There is food or packaging preventing the door from closing

• The door compartments, shelves and drawers are placed properly

• The door gaskets are broken or torn

• Your fridge is level.

If the edges of fridge cabinet that the door joint contact are warm;

Especially in summer (hot weather), the surfaces that the joint contact may get warmer during the operation of the

compressor, this is normal.

IMPORTANT NOTES:

• The compressor protection thermal fuse will cut out after sudden power breakdowns or after unplugging the

appliance, because the gas in the cooling system is not stabilised. This is quite normal, and the fridge will

restart after 4 or 5 minutes.

• The cooling unit of your refrigerator is hidden in the rear wall. Therefore, water droplets or ice may occur on the

rear surface of your fridge due to the operation of the compressor in specified intervals. This is normal. There

is no need to perform a defrosting operation unless the ice is excessive.

• If you will not use your fridge for a long time (e.g. in summer holidays) unplug it. Clean your fridge according to

Part 4 and leave the door open to prevent humidity and smell.

• The appliance you have purchased is designed for home type use and can be used only at home and for the

stated purposes. It is not suitable for commercial or common use. if the consumer uses the appliance in a
