Noise
from
your
appliance
You
may
notice
some
rather
unusual
noises.
The
noises
are
caused
by
circulation
of
refrigerant
in
the
cooling
system.
It
has
become
more
pronounced
since
the
introduction
of
CFC
free
gases.
This
is
not
a
fault
and
will
not
affect
the
performance
of
your
fridge.
Prolonged
off
periods
If
the
appliance
is
not
in
use
for
a
long
period
of
time,
proceed
as
follows:
Disconnect
from
the
mains
supply.
Clean
and
dry
the
inside
(see
‘Cleaning
and
maintenance’).
Leave
the
door
open
to
prevent
any
unpleasant
smells
from
building
up
while
the
appliance
is
not
in
use.
Notes
for
use
Do
clean
and
defrost
your
appliance
regularly.
Do
check
contents
of
the
compartments
every
so
often.
Do
store
commercially
prepared
food
in
accordance
with
the
instructions
given
on
the
packets.
Do
wrap
all
food
in
food
quality
polythene
bags
or
air
tight
containers
and
make
sure
any
air
is
excluded.
Do
Not
store
poisonous
or
any
dangerous
substances
in
your
appliance.
Do
Not
leave
the
door
open
for
long
periods,
as
this
will
make
the
appliance
more
costly
to
run
and
cause
excessive
ice
formation.
Do
Not
use
sharp
objects
such
as
knives
to
remove
the
ice
from
the
appliance.
Only
use
a
plastic
scraper.
Do
Not
put
hot
food
into
the
appliance.
Let
it
cool
down
to
room
temperature.
Do
Not
put
liquid
‐
filled
bottles
or
sealed
cans
containing
carbonated
liquids
into
the
appliance
as
they
may
burst.
