If your fridge is not working properly, it may

following, before calling an electrician to
save time and money.
Your fridge is not operating
Check if:
• There is power
• The plug is correctly connected to the
socket

plugging your fridge into a working
socket.

side walls.
Your fridge is operating noisily
Cracking (ice cracking) noise occurs:

or warmed (due to expansion of
appliance material).
Motor noise: Indicates the compressor
is operating normally. The compressor
may cause more noise for a short time
when it is first activated.
Bubbling noise and splash: Due to
the flow of the refrigerant in the tubes of
the system.
Air blowing noise: Indicates normal

circulation of air.

Humidity of the room enters the fridge
when the doors are opened. Humidity
increases faster when the doors are
opened more frequently, especially if the
humidity of the room is high.

properly
Check if:
• There is food or packaging preventing the
door from closing

drawers are placed properly
