•

wrap, aluminum foil, etc.) to be stored in the freezer.

As a result of temperature - induced deformations of refrigerator components, you may hear a slight crackling noise. Sounds typically heard when a thermal regulator or compressor turns on are normal and may be heard during the operation of any electrical device. The refrigerant circulating inside the refrigeration system may produce a slight gurgling sound, even if the compressor is off. Do not worry, it is absolutely normal. During refrigerator operation, you may hear:

- sound of compressor working;

- rustling of fans blades;

- sound of circulating air flow of cooling system No Frost;

- relay operating clicks;

- buzzing of drive when openning and closing damper;

- gurgling of refrigerant circulating through pipes of refrigeration system;

- a slight crackling when materials deform due to temperature changes. These noises are not related to any defect and have functional character.
