3.3. Ice Box
Your appliance is fitted with a two star ice-box that will maintain a temperature
in the region of –12 degrees. This ice-box is intended for the storage of certain
frozen foods for a maximum of 1 month. You should check the storage label of
any pre-frozen food you intend to store and follow the producers instructions.
The ice-box can also be used for the freezing and storage of small amounts of
ice.
Please note: You cannot use this ice-box to freeze any fresh food item.
3.4. Normal Operating Sounds
You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is pumped
to the cooling system and through the coils or tubing at the rear of the
appliance. When the compressor is in operation you may hear a slight whirring
sound or pulsating noise. The thermostat controls the operation of the
compressor, and you may hear a slight click as it cycles in and out.
3.5. Energy Saving Advice
Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a cooker,
dishwasher or radiator. Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and
make sure that the air vents are clear.
Try to avoid keeping the door open for long time, warm air will enter the cabinet,
and may cause a build up of ice as well as affecting the energy consumption.
Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from closing properly
3.6. In the Event of a Power Failure
If there is a power failure, keep the door closed. When the power has been
restored the appliance will start to operate but it may take some time to achieve
the pre-set operating temperature. Check the condition of your stored food
items.
