3.4. Normal Operating Sounds 

You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is pumped 
to the cooling system and through the coils or tubing at the rear of the 
appliance.  When the compressor is in operation you may hear a slight whirring 
sound or pulsating noise.  The thermostat controls the operation of the 
compressor, and you may hear a slight click as it cycles in and out. 

3.5. Energy Saving Advice 



Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a cooker,
dishwasher or radiator.



Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and make sure that
the air vents are clear



Try to avoid keeping the doors open for a long time, warm air will enter
the cabinet and may cause a build up of ice as well as affecting the
energy consumption. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the
doors from closing properly



Ensure that the door seals are clean and there are no tears or splits.



Keep the most perishable foods, (those with a short shelf-life, such as
cooked meats), in the coldest part of the fridge. The Salad Crisper Box is
the warmest part of your fridge and should be used for vegetables,
salads and fruits etc. (see Description of Appliance on Page 2)



Do not overload the fridge: the cooling air that circulates to keep the
fridge cold gets blocked and pockets of warm air form.



Do not put hot food into the fridge or freezer – let it cool down first.

3.6. In the Event of a Power Failure 

If there is a power failure, keep the door closed.  When the power has been 
restored the appliance will start to operate but it may take some time to achieve 
the pre-set operating temperature.  Check the condition of your stored food 
items and liquids.
