Hints And Tips; Normal Operating Sounds; Food Storage; Energy Saving Advice - Hyundai FSB 0143 TW7 User Manual

● Aim to check dates on packets and rotate
food regularly. Although storage longer than
recommended is not harmful, flavours
and textures begin to change.

HINTS AND TIPS

Normal Operating Sounds (are not reason
for claim)
● You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling
sounds when the refrigerant is pumped
through the coils or tubing at the rear, to the
cooling plate/evaporator or to the fixed
freezer baskets..
● When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is
being pumped round, and you will hear
a whirring sound or pulsating noise from the
compressor.
● A thermostat controls the compressor, and
you will hear a faint ‚click' when the thermo
stat cuts in and out.

Food Storage

● To obtain the best results from your applian-
ce, neither hot foods nor liquids which may
evaporate, should be placed in ther compart-
ment.
● Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot store
it straight away. The use of an insulated
container is advisable. When you arrive
home place the frozen food in the freezer
immediately.
● Keep the time between buying chilled food
and placing it in your fridge as short as
possible.
● Do not push food together too much, try to
allow air to circulate around each item.
● Do not store food uncovered or unpacked.
● Ensure that food placed in the freezer is
dated and labelled and used in date order to
ensure that food is consumed at its best.
● Remove suspect food from your refrigerator
and clean, refer to cleaning and maintenan-
ce.

Energy Saving Advice

● Do not install the appliance close to sources
of heat, such as a cooker, dishwasher
or radiator.
● Locate the appliance in a cool well ventilated
room and make sure that the air openings
of the cabinet are not obstructed.
● Avoid unnecessary frosting in the cabinet by
packing all foodstuffs into airtight packages
before placing them in the freezer.
● Always leave warm food to cool down to
room temperature before placing
in the freezer.
● Food which is to be frozen (when cool)
should be placed in the fridge before being
transferred to the freezer.
● Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This will
ensure safer defrosting of foods and reduce
the work of the refrigeration unit.
● Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods, or opening the door too frequently
as warm air will enter the cabinet, and cau-
se the compressor to switch on unnecessari-
ly often.
● Ensure there are no obstructions preventing
the door from closing properly.
● It is advisable to periodically clean the refri-
geration system at the back of the appliance
with a duster or vacuum cleaner.

In the Event of a Power Failure

If there is a power failure during the storage of
frozen foods, keep the door closed. If the
temperature within your freezer should rise
do not refreeze the food without checking it's
condition. The following guidelines should assist
you:
Ice Cream: Once thawed should be discarded.
Fruit and Vegetables :If soft should be cooked
and used up.
Bread and Cakes: Can be refrozen without
danger.
Shellfish : Should be refrigerated and used up
quickly.
Cooked Dishes: i.e. casseroles, should be
refrigerated and used up.
Large Pieces of Mea t :Can be re-frozen
providing there are ice crystals remaining within
them.
