Helpful hints and tips
Normal Operating Sounds
• You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling
sound when the refrigerant is pumped
through the coils or tubing. This is correct.
• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is
being pumped around and you will hear a
whirring sound and a pulsating noise from the
compressor. This is correct.
• The thermic dilatation might cause a sudden
cracking noise. It is natural, not dangerous
physical phenomenon. This is correct.
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the
Temperature Regulator is set to low tempera-
ture and the appliance is fully loaded, the
compressor may run continuously, causing
frost or ice on the evaporator. If this happens,
set the Temperature Regulator toward warm-
er settings to allow automatic defrosting and
so a saving in electricity consumption.

Hints for refrigeration
Useful hints:
Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags and
place on the glass shelf above the vegetable
drawer.
For safety, store in this way only one or two
days at the most.
Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc.: these should
be covered and may be placed on any shelf.
Fruits and vegetables: these should be thor-
oughly cleaned and placed in the special draw-
er(s) provided. When in contact, lemon juice
can discolor the plastic parts of your fridge. It is
therefore recommended to keep citruses in sep-
arate containers.
Butter and cheese: these should be placed in
special airtight containers or wrapped in alumi-
nium foil or polythene bags to exclude as much
air as possible.
