[. . . ] You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sound when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils at the rear, to the cooling plate/evaporator. When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped round and you will hear a whirring sound or pulsating noise from the compressor. The fridge evaporator (this part cool down the fridge section) is foamed into the cabinet. The temperature of this part changing during its work, and parallel with this its dimensions are slightly changing, too. These changes might cause a cracking noise, which is a natural, harmless phenomenon. Should you want to check the temperature of food stored in the refrigerator, set the thermostat knob into a medium position, place a glass of water centrally in the cabinet, and put a proper thermometer with an accuracy of +/- 1°C into it. If after 6 hours you measure a value between +3°C and +8°C, the refrigerator works properly. The measuring shall be performed under steady-stated conditions (without changing the load). If the freezer temperature is measured using a thermometer, put it between the products since this will reflect the real temperature in the frozen products.
