HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Normal Operating Sounds
• You may hear a faint gurgling and a bub-
bling sound when the refrigerant is pum-
ped through the coils or tubing. This is
correct.
• When the compressor is on, the refriger-
ant is being pumped around and you will
hear a whirring sound and a pulsating
noise from the compressor. This is cor-
rect.
• The thermic dilatation might cause a sud-
den cracking noise. It is natural, not dan-
gerous physical phenomenon. This is
correct.
• When the compressor switches on or
switches off, you will hear a faint "click" of
the temperature regulator. This is correct.
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave
it open longer than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and
the Temperature Regulator is set to low
temperature and the appliance is fully
loaded, the compressor may run continu-
ously, causing frost or ice on the evapo-
rator. If this happens, set the Tempera-
ture Regulator toward warmer settings to
allow automatic defrosting and so a sav-
ing in electricity consumption.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating
liquids in the refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it
has a strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate
freely around it
Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags
and place on the glass shelf above the veg-
etable drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two
days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc.: these
should be covered and may be placed on
any shelf.
Fruits and vegetables: these should be
thoroughly cleaned and placed in the spe-
cial drawer(s) provided. When in contact,
lemon juice can discolor the plastic parts of
your fridge. It is therefore recommended to
keep citruses in separate containers.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed
in special airtight containers or wrapped in
aluminium foil or polythene bags to exclude
as much air as possible.
Bottles: these should have a cap and
should be stored in the bottle rack on the
door.
Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not
packed, must not be kept in the refrigera-
tor.
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing
process, here are some important hints:
• the maximum quantity of food which can
be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rat-
ing plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No
further food to be frozen should be add-
ed during this period;
• only freeze top quality, fresh and thor-
oughly cleaned, foodstuffs;
