Normal Sounds
Your new wine refrigerator may make sounds that are not familiar to you. Most of the new sounds are normal.
Hard surfaces like the floor or walls can make the sounds seem louder than they actually are. The following
describes the kinds of sounds that might be new to you and what may be making them.
• Rattling noises may come from the flow of the refrigerant or the water line.
• Items stored on top of the wine refrigerator can also make noises.
• The high efficiency compressor may make a pulsating or high-pitched sound.
• The internal fan will run frequently to create a consistent internal temperature environment.
• Water running from the evaporator to the water bin may make a splashing sound.
• As each cycle ends, you may hear a gurgling sound due to the refrigerant flowing in your wine
refrigerator.
• You may hear air being forced over the condenser by the condenser fan.
Temperature Alarm
If the interior temperature is higher than 73°F (23°C), “HI” is shown on the temperature
control panel and the temperature alarm will sound continuously after one hour.
This indicates that the inner temperature is too high. If the inner temperature is lower
than 32°F (0°C), “LO” is shown on the temperature display panel and the temperature
alarm will sound continuously after one hour. If one of these situations occurs please
reference the troubleshooting section found in this manual or contact Avallon for support.
Door Ajar Alarm
This Wine Cooler includes a door ajar alarm, which will sound if one of the door is
open for more than five (5) minutes. Leaving the door open for extended periods of time
will cause poor cooling performance and may shorten the life of the refrigerator. Keep
the door closed as frequently as possible.
