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 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.
