GURGLING, WHOOSHING
These 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.
HUMMING, PURRING OR PULSATING
This is the compressor motor working, as it pumps the refrigerant around the system.
SHOPPING FOR FROZEN FOODS
Your Freezer is 4 star.
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. This is usually the period stated as 'Best Before', on the front of the packaging.
CHECK THE FREEZER TEMPERATURE
Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy your frozen
foods. It should show a temperature lower than -18°C.
CHOOSE PACKS CAREFULLY
Take a quick look at the frozen food package and make sure it is in perfect condition.
PURCHASE FROZEN FOOD LAST
Always buy frozen products last on your visit to the supermarket.
KEEP FROZEN FOODS TOGETHER
When you are going around the supermarket and when you are travelling home, if you
keep all the frozen foods together they will help to keep each other cold.
STORE FOOD STRAIGHT AWAY
Don't buy frozen food unless you can freeze it straight away. Special insulated bags can
be bought from most supermarkets and hardware shops. These keep frozen food cold for
longer.
FREEZING FRESH FOOD
See the technical data sheet at the rear of this booklet for the maximum permissible
amount in kilograms of fresh food that can be frozen in any 24-hour period with a room
temperature of 25℃ . Never freeze more than the maximum permissible.
Set the temperature control to "Super" 24 hours before introducing the fresh food.
The compressor will work continuously whilst on the "Super" setting.
Return the temperature setting to normal after a further 24 hours.
It is not necessary to use this setting when introducing ready frozen food.
MAKING ICE CUBES
Pour water into the ice cube tray(Not supplied) until it is two thirds full and place into the
freezer. Ice cubes form in approximately 2 to 3 hours. The ice cubes can be easily
removed by twisting the ice cube tray or running it under cold water for a short time.
