Cleaning
l
Install the appliance in a cool, dry room with
adequate ventilation. Ensure that it is not
exposed to direct sunlight and never put it
near a direct source of heat (radiator, etc.).
l
Never block any vents or grilles on the
appliance.
l
Allow warm food to cool down before
placing in the appliance.
l
Put frozen food in the refrigerator to thaw.
You can then use the low temperatures
of the frozen products to cool food in the
refrigerator.
l
Do not keep the door of the appliance
open for too long when loading or taking
out food.
The shorter the time that the door is
opened, the less ice will form on the
freezer grids.
l
Clean the heat exchanger (black grid) at
the back of the appliance every two years.

Information about
operating noises
Operating noises
In order to maintain the pre-set temperature
at a constant level, the appliance compressor
switches on from time to time.
The noises that can be heard while it is
running are perfectly normal.
The noise reduces automatically when the
appliance reaches its operating temperature.
The
humming noise
is emitted by the motor
(compressor). When the motor switches ON,
the noise may briefly increase in volume.
The
bubbling, gurgling
or
whirring
noise is
emitted by the refrigerant as it flows through
the pipes.
The
clicking noise
can always be heard
when the thermostat switches ON/OFF the
motor.
Cracking noises may occur if ...
- the automatic defrosting is operating.
- the appliance is cooling down or
warming up (material expansion).
A multi-zone or No-Frost appliance may
cause a
low hissing noise
emitted by the
air flow inside the appliance.
If these noises are excessively loud, the
causes are probably not serious and are
usually very easy to eliminate.
The appliance is not level
Please level the appliance with the aid of
a spirit level. Use the height-adjustable feet
or place packing under the feet.
The appliance is not free-standing
Please move the appliance away from
kitchen units or other appliances.
Drawers, baskets or shelves are loose or
stick
Please check the detachable components
and, if required, refit them.
Bottles and/or receptacles are touching
each other
Please move bottles and/or receptacles
away from each other.
