During high ambient temperatures e.g. on hot summer days, it may be necessary to
set the thermostat on the coldest se

ng (MAX). This may cause the compressor to
run con

Noise Inside the Unit
You may no
ti
ce that your unit makes some unusual noises. Most of these are perfectly normal,
but you should be aware of them.
These noises are caused by the circula
ti
on of the refrigerant in the cooling system. It has become
more pronounced since the intr
oduction
of CFC free gases. This is not a fault and will not a
ff
ect
the performance of your unit. This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant
around the system.
4.3
Tips for Keeping Food in the Unit
Cooked food should always be stored on a shelf above raw meat
s/fish
es to avoid bacteria
transfer. Keep raw meat
s/fish
es in a container that is large enough to collect juices and
cover it properly.
Leave space around your food to allow air to circulate inside the unit. Ensure all parts of
the unit are kept cool.
To prevent transfer of
fl
avors and drying out, pack or cover the food separately. Fruits
and vegetables do not need to be wrapped.
Always allow pre-cooked food to cool down before placing inside the unit. This will help
to maintain the internal temperature of the unit.
To prevent cold air escaping, try to limit the frequency of door opening.
