4 - Operating your refrigerator
Initial start up
The refrigerator transfers heat from food placed inside
the refrigerator to the outside air.
This process makes the rear, the sides and the area
adjacent to the doors, particularly at initial start up,
feel warm. This is normal.
There is a cooling coil located behind the rear wall of the
freezer section. This coil cools and removes moisture
from the air. A fan at the rear of the freezer section then
circulates cold, dry air throughout the refrigerator.
This air circulation means that foods are refrigerated far
more quickly than in refrigerators where the air remains
relatively static.
Avoid placing food against air outlets as this will
affect air circulation. (see diagram on page 5)
A light frosting will occasionally occur on the cold interior
of the freezer when the door is opened frequently. This
is normal and will disappear after a few days in most
climates.
Make sure you fully close the freezer and fresh food
doors after you load or remove food from these
compartments. If the doors are left partly open, a heavy
frost will coat the inside of the freezer. If a frost develops,
remove it. Take care to properly close the doors and the
frost will not reoccur.
Your new energy efficient refrigerator uses a high-speed
compressor and other energy efficient components that
may produce different noises to your old refrigerator.
These sounds are normal and include:
• compressor running noise.
• air movement noise from the small fan motor.
• occasional gurgling, similar to water boiling.
• a popping noise, heard during defrosting.
• a clicking noise, just prior to the compressor
starting up.
These noises are normal and not cause for alarm.
Further details can be found on page 17.
Refrigerator / Freezer operation
On a top freezer refrigerator
If food is forward of the ribs on the bottom
of the freezer, it will keep the door open. So
make sure food is stored behind the ribs.
On a bottom freezer refrigerator
Ensure freezer baskets and shelves are
pushed completely back to prevent them
holding the door open.
