Attention The compressor (M) (also known as motor) must not operate continuously. It is controlled by the thermostat which you set with the temperature control (FIG.4). It switches on automatically when the set temperature in the storage compartment exceeds and switches off automatically when the correct temperature is reached again. Noise can be heard in every compressor - cooling system when the compressor is switched on. This noise is produced when the motor in the compressor operates and also by refrigerant flowing in the cooling system circuit. These noises are normal and do not indicate any functional trouble. In unheated rooms and in cold weather condition condensation can build up on the outer walls of the appliance. This does not mean trouble and disappears when the weather becomes warmer.
