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 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.

Care and cleaning

Warning! Refer to Safety

chapters.

Periodic cleaning

The equipment has to be cleaned regularly:

• clean the inside and accessories with

lukewarm water and some neutral soap.

• regularly check the door seals and wipe

clean to ensure they are clean and free

from debris.

• rinse and dry thoroughly.

Do not pull, move or damage

any pipes and/or cables inside

the cabinet.

Never use detergents, abrasive

powders, highly perfumed

cleaning products or wax

polishes to clean the interior as

this will damage the surface and

leave a strong odour.

Clean the condenser (black grill) and the

compressor at the back of the appliance

with a brush . This operation will improve
