• A faint gurgling and bubbling sound from
coils sound when refrigerant is pumped.
• A whirring and pulsating sound from the
compressor when refrigerant is pumped.

• do not store warm food or evaporating
liquids in the refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if
it has a strong flavour
• position food so that air can circulate
freely around it

Do not use metallic instruments
to remove the trays from the

Hints for refrigeration

Useful hints:
• Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags
and place on the glass shelf above the
vegetable drawer.
• For safety, store in this way only one or
two days at the most.
• Cooked foods, cold dishes, etc. : these
should be covered and may be placed
on any shelf.
• Fruit and vegetables: these should be
thoroughly cleaned and placed in the
special drawer(s) provided.
• Butter and cheese: these should be
placed in special airtight containers or
wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene
bags to exclude as much air as possible.
• Bottles: these need a cap and should be
stored on the door bottle shelf, or (if
equipped) on the bottle rack.
• Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if
not packed, must not be kept in the
refrigerator.
