Practical tips and notes
Freezing
• Always leave food to thaw in a container that
allows the thawing water to run off.
• Do not exceed the maximum allowable
freezing capacity when freezing fresh food
(see the section "Freezing")
• Do not give children ice-cream and ices directly
from the freezer.
The low temperature may cause cold burns on
lips.
• Never re-freeze defrosted food; defrosted food
must be consumed within 24 hours. Only food
that has been cooked can be refrozen.
• Do not take out frozen food with wet hands.
• Store only fresh and impeccable food.
• Always use appropriate packaging material
to avoid odour penetration or degradation of
the food.
• Store commercially frozen food in accordance
with the instructions given on the packaging.
• Freeze cooked food in small quantities. This
ensures rapid freezing and maintains the
quality of the food.
• Do not freeze liquids in tightly closed bottles
or containers.
The bottles/containers may burst at low
temperatures.
• Carry pre-frozen food in suitable bags and
place it in your freezer as soon as possible.
Always defrost food in the fridge compartment.
Normal operating noises
Various functional noises are completely
normal due to the operation of the cooling
system of your appliance;
• Gurgling, hissing, boiling or bubbling noises
are caused by the refrigerant, circulating inside
the cooling system. These noises can still be
heard for a short period of time after the
compressor shuts off.
• Sudden, sharp cracking or popping noises
are caused by the expansion and contraction
of the inside walls or some components inside
the cabinets.
• Buzzing, whirring, pulsating or high-pitched
humming noises are caused by the
compressor. These noises are slightly louder
at the start-up of the compressor and reduce
when the appliance reaches the operating
temperatures.
Also to avoid disturbing vibrations and noises
make sure that;
• Your refrigerator is standing level on all four
feet.
• Your refrigerator is not in contact with the
walls, surrounding objects or kitchen cabinets
and furniture.
• Cans, bottles or dishes inside the refrigerator
are not touching and hitting each other.
• All shelves and bins are mounted correctly
inside the refrigerator cabinets and doors.
