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.
Hints for energy saving
•
Do not open the door frequently or leave it open
longer than absolutely necessary.
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
Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
•
Meat (all types): wrap in a suitable packaging and
place it on the glass shelf above the vegetable
drawer. Store meat for at most 1-2 days.
•
Cooked foods, cold dishes: cover and place on any
shelf.
•
Fruit and vegetables: clean thoroughly and place in
a special drawer. Bananas, potatoes, onions and
garlic must not be kept in the refrigerator if not

Butter and cheese: place in a special airtight
container or wrap in an aluminium foil or a polythene
bag to exclude as much air as possible.

The symbols show different types of frozen goods.
The numbers indicate storage times in months for the
appropriate types of frozen goods. Whether the upper or
lower value of the indicated storage time is valid
depends on the quality of the foods and treating before
freezing.
•
Bottles: close with a cap and place on the door
bottle shelf, or (if available) on the bottle rack.
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing process,
here are some important hints:
•
the maximum quantity of food which can be frozen
in 24 hours is shown on the rating plate;
•
the freezing process takes 24 hours no further food
to be frozen should be added during this period;
•
freeze only top quality, fresh and thoroughly
cleaned, foodstuffs;
•
prepare food in small portions to enable it to be
rapidly and completely frozen and to make it
possible subsequently to thaw only the quantity
required;
•
wrap up the food in aluminium foil or polythene and
make sure that the packages are airtight;
•
do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch food
which is already frozen, thus avoiding a rise in
temperature of the latter;
•
lean foods store better and longer than fatty ones;
salt reduces the storage life of food;
•
water ices, if consumed immediately after removal
from the freezer compartment, can possibly cause
the skin to be freeze burnt;
•
it is advisable to show the freezing in date on each
individual pack to enable you to keep tab of the
storage time.
Hints for storage of frozen food
