them and store them in a cool place.
3. Switch off the appliance and remove plug from the mains, or discon-
nect from the electricity supply.

defrosting process, place a pot of

accessories (see section: "Maintenance and Cleaning").
Hints and Tips
Normal Operating Sounds
You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant
is pumped through the coils or tubing at the rear, to the cooling
plate/evaporator.
• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is being pumped round
and you will hear a whirring sound or pulsating noise from the
compressor.
• A thermostat controls the compressor and you will hear a faint click
when the thermostat cuts in and out.
Food Storage
To obtain the best performance from your refrigerator/freezer:
• Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids.
• Do not store food uncovered.
