Thawing

Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can be thawed in the refrigerator compartment or at room tem- perature, depending on the time available for this opera- tion.

Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer.

Helpful hints and tips

Normal Operating Sounds

You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling sound when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or tubing. This is correct.

When the compressor is on, the refrigerant 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 sudden crack- ing noise. It is natural, not dangerous physical phe- nomenon. This is correct.

When the compressor switches on or switches off, you will hear a faint "click" of the temperature regula- tor. This is correct.

er casing of this appliance is only cleaned with warm wa- ter with a little washing-up liquid added.

After cleaning, reconnect the equipment to the mains supply.

Defrosting of the refrigerator

Frost is automatically eliminated from the evaporator of the refrigerator compartment every time the motor com- pressor stops, during normal use. The defrost water drains out through a trough into a special container at the back of the appliance, over the motor compressor, where it evaporates.

It is important to periodically clean the defrost water drain hole in the middle of the refrigerator compartment channel to prevent the water overflowing and dripping onto the food inside. Use the special cleaner provided, which you will find already inserted into the drain hole.
