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 ÕclickÕ when the thermostat cuts in
and out.
Food Storage
To obtain the best performance from your freezer
¥ Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids.
¥ Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot store it
straight away. The use of an insulated container
is advisable. When you arrive home place the
frozen food in the frezeer immediately.
¥ Do not push food together too much, try to allow
air to circulate around each item.
¥ Do not store food uncovered.
¥ Ensure that food placed in the freezer is dated
and labelled and used in date order to ensure
that food is consumed at its best.
¥ Lean food keeps better and longer than fatty
food, salt reduces the storage time.
¥ Wrap the food in polythene or aluminium freezing
bags or foil so that they adhere to the food and
provide an airtight seal .
¥ Packaging which is swollen or has traces of
refrozen water droplets on the pack could
indicate that the product has not been kept at a
suitable temperature and that it may have lost its
original quality. Partially thawed food must not be
refrozen, it must be consumed within 24 hours.
Never exceed the storage times indicated by the
manufacturer.
Energy Saving Advice
¥ Do not install the appliance close to sources of
heat, such as a boiler or radiator.
¥ Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated
room and make sure that the air openings of the
appliance are not abstructed.
¥ Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by
packing all foodstuffs into airtightpakages before
placing them in the freezer.
¥ Food which is to be frozen (when cool) should be
placed in the fridge before being transferred to
the freezer.
¥ Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods or opening the door too frequently as
warm air will enter the cabinet and cause the
compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
¥ Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the d
or from closing properly.
In the Event of a Power Failure
If there is a power failure during the storage of frozen
foods, keep the door closed. If the temperature
within your freezer should rise, do not refreeze the
food without checking its condition. The following
guidelines should assist you:
Ice-cream: Once thawed should be discarded.
Fruits & Vegetables: If soft should be cooked and
used up.
Breads & Cakes: Can be refrozen without danger.
Shellfish: Should be refrigerated and used up
quickly.
Cooked Dishes: i. e. casseroles should be
refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces of Meat: Can be refrozen providing
there are still ice crystals remaining within them.
Small Joints: Should be cooked and can then be
refrozen as cooked dishes.
Chicken: Should also be cooked and refrozen as a
fresh dish.
