Normal operating noises
Various functional noises are completely
normal due to the operation of the cooling
system of your appliance;
• Gurgling, hissing, boiling or bubbling noises are
caused by the refrigerant, circulating inside the
cooling system. These noises can still be heard for
a short period of time after the compressor shuts
off.
• Sudden, sharp cracking or popping noises are
caused by the expansion and contraction of the
inside walls or some components inside the
cabinets.
• Buzzing, whirring, pulsating or high-pitched
humming noises are caused by the compressor.
These noises are slightly louder at the start-up of
the compressor and reduce when the appliance
reaches the operating temperatures.
Also to avoid disturbing vibrations and
noises make sure that;
• Your refrigerator is standing level on all four feet.
• Your refrigerator is not in contact with the walls,
surrounding objects or kitchen cabinets and
furniture.
• Cans, bottles or dishes inside the refrigerator are
not touching and rattling against each other.
• All shelves and bins are mounted correctly inside
the refrigerator cabinets and doors.
Practical advice concerning the
reduction of the electricity
consumption
1. Make sure that the appliance is located in well-
ventilated areas, far from any source of heat
(cooker, radiator etc.). At the same time, the
location of the appliance must be done in such a
way that it prevents it to be under the direct
incidence of the sunbeams.
2. Make sure that the food purchased in
refrigerated/frozen condition is placed into the
appliance as soon as possible, especially during
summertime. It is recommended to use thermal
insulated bags to transport the food home.
3. We recommend the thawing of the packets
taken out from the freezer compartment be done
in the refrigerator compartment. For this purpose,
the packet which is going to be thawed will be
placed in a vessel so that the water resulting from
the thawing does not leak in the refrigerator
compartment. We recommend you to start the
thawing at least 24 hours before the use of the
frozen food.
4. We recommend reducing the number of door
openings to the minimum.
5. Do not keep the door of the appliance open
more than necessary and make sure that after
each opening the door is well closed. When doors
are open, warm air enters the fridge/freezer
cabinets and the appliance consumes more
energy to cool down the foodstuffs.Thus please do
not open doors frequently in order to save energy
and to keep foods at ideal storage temperature.
6. Maximum frozen food storage volume is
achieved without using the middle and upper
drawer provided in the freezer compartment.
Energy consumption of your appliance is declared
while the freezer compartment is fully loaded
without using the middle and upper drawer.
7. Do not block the freezer fan grill by
placing foods in front.There must always be left
minimum 3 cm open distance in front of the
freezer fan grill to allow necessary air flow to
freeze the compartment efficiently.
8. If you do not plan to store foodstuff in freshfood
compartment, please activate Eco Fuzzy function
for energy saving. Freezer compartment keeps
frezing normalıy.
9. Activate “Energy Saving Function”. When
energy Saving Function is active, all icons on the
display will turn off except energy saving icon. All
icons will be lightened, if freshfood door is opened
or display is touched.
10. Recommended temperature settings are +4°C
and -20°C for freshfood and freezer compartments
respectively.
