The Freezer Door is Hard to Open

If you want to open the door that has just or recently been closed, you

may find it hard to open. The reason why this happens is, that when

you open the door, warm air gets into the appliance and when it is

getting cool, the underpressure seals the door. After few minutes (5-

10), the door can easily be opened.

Noise

Cooling in refrigerating-freezing appliances is enabled by the

refrigerating system with compressor, which produces noise. How

noisy the appliance is depends on where it is placed, how it is used and

how old the appliance is.
During the operation of the compressor the noise of liquid is heard

and when the compressor is not operating, the refrigerant flow is

heard. This is a normal condition and it has no influence whatsoever

on the lifetime of the appliance.

After starting the appliance, the operation of the compressor and

the refrigerant flow may be louder, which does not mean that

something is wrong with the appliance and it has no influence on the

lifetime of the appliance. Gradually the noise is reduced.

• Sometimes unusual and stronger noise is heard, which is rather

unusual for the appliance. This noise is often a consequence of

inadequate placing.
− The appliance shall be placed and levelled firmly on solid base.

− It should not touch the wall or kitchen units standing next to it.

− Check the accesories in the interior of the appliance, they should

be placed correctly in their positions; also check the bottles, tins

and other vessels that might touch each other and rattle.

power supply.
