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.
Do not cover the shelves with any protective
material, such as paper, cardboard or plastic, which
may obstruct the air circulation through them.
To help you use your refrigerator correctly, here are
some more useful hints:
Raw meat
(beef, pork, lamb & poultry): wrap in
polythene bags and place on top of the salad drawer.
Meat can only be stored safely in this way for
one or two days at the most.
Fruit & vegetables:
these should be thoroughly
cleaned and placed in the bottom salad drawer.
Butter & cheese:
these should be placed in special
airtight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or
polythene bags to exclude as much air as possible.
Milk bottles:
these should have a cap and should
be stored in the bottle rack on the door.
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 or to the fixed freezer shelves.
•
When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is
being pumped round, and you will hear a whirring
sound or pulsating noise from the compressor.
Using the refrigerator
Before use
Remove all securing tapes.Wash inside the appliance
with lukewarm water and bicarbonate of soda (5 ml

of information.
During normal operation, the temperature currently
present in the fridge (ACTUAL temperature) is
