Noises
During the normal operation of the freezer
several different types of noises may be heard
including; ‘cracks’, ‘gurgles’. This is perfectly
normal.
Temperature control
Normally the interior temperature of your
freezer will remain constant, however it may
change due to seasonal weather fluctuations,
During the summer months it may be
necessary to turn the control dial slightly
colder. We recommend checking the freezer
temperature periodically with a thermometer
and adjust the control dial to suit.
The internal freezer temperature may also be
affected by:
• Frequent opening of the door and leaving
the door open for long periods,
• Putting warm food into or not allowing food
to cool down before placing into the freezer,
• The location of the freezer in the room. (eg.
exposure to strong sunlight).
