The storage temperature may be affected by:
 The room temperature
 How often the door is opened
 How much food is stored
 Position of the appliance
In determining the correct thermostat temperature control setting, all these factors have to be
considered and readjustment of the thermostat temperature control may be necessary.
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 freezer.
SHOPPING FOR FROZEN FOODS:
The appliance is rated as a 4 star freezer and can freeze fresh food and store pre frozen food.
When you are buying frozen food, look at the Storage Guidelines on the packaging. You will be
able to store each item of frozen food for the period shown against the 4 star rating.

STORAGE OF FRESH FOOD IN THE REFRIGERATOR:
• Food should always be covered tightly with foil, plastic film, placed in plastic bags or stored
in airtight freezer containers. This will prevent food from dehydrating and to prevent any
strong odours of some foods transferring to milder ones.
• To store raw meat in the refrigerator wrap in plastic bags or in airtight containers and place
on the lowest shelf to avoid cross contamination.
• Do not allow raw meat to come into contact with cooked foods. For safety, only store raw
