Hints and tips

Normal operating sounds

The following sounds are normal during

operation:

• A faint gurgling and bubbling sound

from coils sound when refrigerant is

pumped.

• A whirring and pulsating sound from the

compressor when refrigerant is pumped.

• A sudden cracking noise from inside

appliance caused by thermic dilatation

(a natural and not dangerous physical

phenomenon).

• A faint click noise from the temperature

regulator when the compressor switches

on or off.

Hints for energy saving

• Do not open the door frequently or leave

it open longer than absolutely necessary.

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 vegetable 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.

• Fruit and vegetables: these should be

thoroughly cleaned and placed in the

special drawer(s) provided.

• 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 need a cap and should be

stored on the door bottle shelf, or (if

equipped) on the bottle rack.

• Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if

not packed, must not be kept in the

refrigerator.

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

rating plate;

• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No

further food to be frozen should be

added during this period;

• freeze only top quality, fresh and

thoroughly cleaned, foodstuffs;

• prepare food in small portions to enable

it to be rapidly and completely frozen
