5. HINTS AND TIPS
5.1 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.
5.2 Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or
leave it open longer than absolutely
necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and
the Temperature Regulator is set to low
temperature and the appliance is fully
loaded, the compressor may run
continuously, causing frost or ice on
the evaporator. If this happens, set the
Temperature Regulator toward warmer
settings to allow automatic defrosting
and so a saving in electricity
consumption.
5.3 Hints for 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
• position food so that air can circulate
freely around it
5.4 Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
• Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene
bags and place on the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer.
• For safety, store in this way only one or
two days at the most.
• Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc..: these
should be covered and may be placed
on any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables: these should be
thoroughly cleaned and placed in the
special drawer(s) provided.
• Butter and cheese: these should be
placed in special airtight containers or
wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene
bags to exclude as much air as
possible.
• Bottles: these need a cap and should
be stored either on the bottle rack or
the door bottle shelf.
• Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic,
if not packed, must not be kept in the
refrigerator.
5.5 Hints for temperature inside
the refrigerator
A suitable temperature inside the
refrigerator is approxi5° C. It is
normal with higher temperature in the top
of the refrigerator and lower temperature
in the lower part. If the temperature
regulator is set to a too cold temperature,
the ambient temperature is high or if the
appliance is fully loaded the compressor
will run for a longer time. This results in
colder temperature in the lower part of the
fridge due to the cold air that falls down. It
may result in that food with high water
content start to freeze. If too cold, change
to a higher temperature setting.
Do not place any shelves towards the
water drain hole. This can result in too
cold temperatures.
If you want to check the temperature of
food stored in the refrigerator, place a
glass of water centrally in the cabinet, and
put a proper thermometer with an
accuracy of +/– 1 °C into it. After 6 hours
the temperature can be monitored. The
measuring shall be performed under
steady-stated conditions (without
changing the load).
