Troubleshooting Guide - HAEGER 280 COMBI Manuel D'instructions

Operating noise
•
The refrigerator and freezer are cooled by means of a compression system. In order to
maintain the preset temperature inside the refrigerator and freezer sections, the
compressor comes into operation in response to the level of cooling required and may
operate continuously if necessary. When the compressor starts up a humming sound will
be heard, tending to drop in volume after a few minutes.
•
Another normal refrigerator operating noise is a gurgling due to the coolant flowing
through the pipes in the circuit. This noise is perfectly normal and does not mean that the
appliance is malfunctioning. If it is over-loud, there may be other causes. In this case, check
that:
-
the refrigerator is properly levelled on the floor and does not vibrate when the
compressor is in operation: adjust the feet provided as appropriate;
-
The drawers, shelves and door boxes are correctly fitted and securely in place: fit
correctly;
-
Bottles and containers on the various shelves are stable and not touching: the vibration
due to operation of the compressor may generate some noise;
-
Do not place kitchen units or other appliances so that they are touching the refrigerator.
