Abstract

A compressor of a refrigeration appliance includes a motor, in particular a BLDC motor, and a controller for stopping the motor. The controller is configured to slow down the motor rotating in a first rotating direction until it comes to a standstill and to subsequently position the rotor relative to the stator, in a second rotating direction with a predetermined torque. A method for stopping a compressor of a refrigeration appliance is also provided.
