• 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).

Hints for energy saving

• Do not open the door frequently or leave

it open longer than absolutely necessary.

• Do not remove the cold accumulators

from the freezer basket.

• Do not remove the freezer blocks from

the freezer basket.

Hints for fresh food refrigeration

• Do not store warm food or evaporating

liquids in the refrigerator.

• 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 a suitable

packaging and place it on the glass shelf

above the vegetable drawer. Store meat

for at most 1-2 days.

• Cooked foods, cold dishes: cover and

place on any shelf.

• Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly

and place in a special drawer. Bananas,

potatoes, onions and garlic must not be

kept in the refrigerator if not packed.

• Butter and cheese: place in a special

airtight container or wrap in an

aluminium foil or a polythene bag to

exclude as much air as possible.

• Bottles: close with a cap and place on

the door bottle shelf, or (if available) on

the bottle rack.

Hints for freezing

• Freeze only top quality, fresh and

thoroughly cleaned food products.

• For more efficient freezing and thawing

divide food into small portions.

• Wrap the food in aluminium foil or

polythene. Make sure that the packages

are airtight.

• To avoid increase in temperature of

already frozen food, do not place fresh

unfrozen food directly next to it.

• Lean foods store better and longer than

fatty ones. Salt reduces the storage life of

food.

• Do not eat ice cubes, water ices or ice

lollies immediately after taking them out

of the freezer. Risk of frostbites.

• It is advisable to show the freezing date

on each individual pack to enable you to

keep tab of the storage time.

Hints for storage of frozen food

• Make sure that the commercially frozen

food products were adequately stored

by the retailer.

• Make sure that frozen foodstuffs are

transferred from the food store to the

freezer in the shortest possible time.

• Once defrosted, food deteriorates

rapidly and cannot be refrozen.

• Do not exceed the storage period

indicated by the food manufacturer.

• Do not store glass containers with liquids

in the freezer compartment because they

may break.

Care and cleaning

chapters.
