3.4 Normal Operating Sounds
You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds when the refrigerant is
pumped to the cooling system and through the coils or tubing at the rear
of the appliance.
When the compressor is in operation you may hear a slight whirring
sound or pulsating noise. The thermostat controls the operation of the
compressor, and you may hear a slight click as it cycles in and out.
3.5 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 vents are clear.
Try to avoid keeping the door open for a long time, warm air will enter the
cabinet and may cause a buildup of ice as well as affecting the energy
consumption. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from
closing properly.
Ensure that the door seal is clean and there are no tears or splits.
Do not put hot food into the freezer – let it cool down first.
3.6 In the Event of a Power Failure
If there is a power failure, keep the door closed. When the power has been
restored the appliance will start to operate but it may take some time to
achieve the pre-set operating temperature. Check the condition of your
stored food items and liquids.
