defrosting, for example due to a power

HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS

Normal Operating Sounds
• You may hear a faint gurgling and a bub-
bling sound when the refrigerant is pum-
ped through the coils or tubing. This is cor-
rect.
• When the compressor is on, the refriger-
ant is being pumped around and you will
hear a whirring sound and a pulsating
noise from the compressor. This is correct.
• The thermic dilatation might cause a sud-
den cracking noise. It is natural, not dan-
gerous physical phenomenon. This is cor-
rect.
• When the compressor switches on or
switches off, you will hear a faint "click" of
the temperature regulator. This is correct.
Hints for freezing
To help you make the most of the freezing
process, here are some important hints:
• the maximum quantity of food which can
be frozen in 24 hrs. is shown on the rat-
ing plate;
• the freezing process takes 24 hours. No
further food to be frozen should be add-
ed during this period;
• only freeze top quality, fresh and thorough-
ly cleaned, foodstuffs;
• prepare food in small portions to enable it
to be rapidly and completely frozen and
to make it possible subsequently to thaw
only the quantity required;

cooking will take longer.
