 Vacation function: If your refrigerator is not going to be used for a long period
but you wish to keep food frozen in the freezer, you can turn the refrigerator
section off and leave it closed: the appliance will continue to function with very
low consumption, without causing odours inside.
 The refrigerating gas may produce bubbling sounds as it
flows through the circuits.
 The compressor may buzz and/or produce slight
knocking, which may be more marked on starting.

contraction of the materials used.
 The insulation used amplifies sound levels.
••
•• You may hear a gentle murmur whwn your refrigerator is switched on. This is
due to the working of a fan incorporated to ensure adequate air circulation
inside the appliance.
 In the freezers of No-Frost refrigerators, the effect will be noted of the ventilator
running to cool and to eliminate frost.
