User manual

the appliance to stabilise before checking
whether another adjustment is required.
Only adjust the controller gradually and
wait at least 12 hours before checking and
perhaps adjusting it again.
Caution! After putting fresh food
into the appliance or after
opening the door repeatedly or
for a long period, it is normal for
the indicator not to show “OK”;
wait at least 12 hours before
readjusting the temperature
controller.
If the evaporator of the refrigeration
compartment (wall at the bottom of the
appliance) has an abnormal covering of ice
(appliance too full, high ambient
temperature, thermostat too high, frequent
door opening), gradually move the
thermostat control to a lower setting until
there are once more periods when the
compressor stops. The automatic defrosting
of the refrigerator compartment will not
work correctly unless the compressor stops
from time to time.
Hints and tips
Normal operating sounds
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.
• If foreseen, do not remove the cold
accumulators from the freezer basket.
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 packed.
• 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.
• Bottles: close with a cap and place on
the door bottle shelf, or (if available) on
the bottle rack.
