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 or to the fixed freezer shelves.
• 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.
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.
Do not cover the shelves with any protective
material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which
may obstruct the air circulation through them.
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are
some more useful hints:
Raw meat (beef, pork,lamb & wild fowl): wrap in
polythene bags and place in the meat drawer above
the salad crispers.
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for
one or two days at the most.
Fruit & vegetables: these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the bottom salad crispers.
Butter & cheese: these should be placed in special
airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or
polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles: these should have a cap and should
be stored in the bottle rack on the door.
The temperature of this compartment may be
regulated between +2°C and +8°C.
During normal functioning the indicator shows the
temperature inside the fridge.
Attention!
A difference between the temperature displayed and
the actual temperature is normal. Especially when:
• A new setting has recently been selected
• The door has been left open for a long time
• Warm food has been placed in the compartment.
Using the refrigerator
Quick chill shelf
The Quick Chill Shelf can be placed in one of the
upper grooves.
To maintain the best performance the shelf should
be placed in the second groove from the top.
Bottle and can holder
The side of the bottle and can holder is moveable to
enable a more flexible placement of cans and bottles
in front of the grid.
To allow the holder to be moved easier when
moving sideways,press the shelf backwards.
The bottle support can be pulled out when chilling
larger bottles.
