When adding large quantities of fresh food to your freezer you are advised to turn the
temperature to the 'Max' setting for a maximum of 4 hours. This will help to fast freeze
the food. Remember to turn the temperature back to the 'Mid' setting after the 4 hour
period!
To avoid food waste, please refer to the recommended setting and storage times found in
the user manual.
Load limits are determined by baskets, flaps, drawers, shelves etc. Make sure that these
components can still close easily after loading.
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 build up 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.
