keeping the door open for a long time, as warm air will enter the cabinet and the cold air inside
will leak out of the cabinet, which will cause energy wasting. Ensure that there is no obstruction
preventing the door from closing properly.
In the event of a power failure
If there is a power failure while the appliance is in operation, do not open the door. If the
temperature inside your REFRIGERATOR should rise, causing food to defrost, do not refreeze
the food.
The following guidelines will assist you:
Ice cream: Once thawed should be discarded.
Fruit and vegetables: If soft should be cooked as soon as possible.
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 meat: Can be refrozen if there are ice crystals remaining within them.
Small joints: Should be cooked and then refrozen as cooked dishes.
Chicken: Should be cooked and refrozen as a fresh dish.
Noises during Operation
The following noises are normal characteristics of the appliance when it works:
Whenever the compressor switches on or off, a click can be heard.
As soon as the compressor is in operation, you can hear it humming.
When refrigerant flows into thin tubes, you can hear bubbling or splashing noises.
Even after the compressor has been switched off, the noise of splashing can be heard for a
short time.
Repairs to the refrigerator may only be conducted by qualified service engineers. Improper
