Operating Noises - Electrolux EK 6 7000 Bedienungsanleitung

Operating Noises

Noises which are entirely normal
The chill cabinet is cooled by a compressor
(refrigeration aggregate). The compressor
pumps coolant through the cooling system,
producing operating noises. Even when
the compressor cuts out, noises caused by
changes in temperature and pressure are
unavoidable.
This cooler is fitted with a quiet compressor
and a low-noise cooling circuit designed in
line with the latest technical develop-
ments.
However, a certain level of noise, depen-
dent on the size of the cooler, is inevitable.
Operating noise will be most audible
immediately after the compressor cuts in. It
becomes quieter as the operating period
continues.
Description Cause
Droning Cooling aggregate
Humming Fan
Gurgling Cooling circuit
Babbling
Murmuring
Hissing Cooling circuit
Clicking Thermostat
Rattling Shelves, baskets,
fitted holders, refri-
gerator contents etc.
Cracking Cooler housing
Noises which are not normal
Unusual noise is normally the result of
improper installation. The cooler must be
installed or built-in so that it is level and
stable. Under no circumstances must tu-
bing come into contact with a wall, other
furniture or with another tubing.
Where coolers are installed in open-plan
kitchens or in partition walls, the level of
operating noise will be heard more acutely.
However, this is due to the surrounding
architecture and not to a fault with the
cooler.
Comment
Normal operating noise of the cooling aggregate.
The level is dependent on the size of cooler
Normal operating noise of the fan
Normal operating noise as coolant flows through
the circuit
Normal operating noise as coolant is injected into
the condenser
Normal switching sound of the electromechanical
temperature controller
Position the interior parts so that they don't touch one
another, or so that they are fitted securely.
Normal as materials expand and contract due
to temperature variations (e.g. plastics, insulation)
