Normal operating sounds
• You may hear faint gurgling or bubbling sounds
when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils
or tubing at the rear, to the cooling
plate/evaporator or to the fixed freezer shelves.
• When the compressor is on, the refrigerant is
being pumped round, and you will hear a whirring
sound or pulsating noise from the compressor.
Thawing
Deep-frozen or frozen food, prior to being used, can
be thawed in a refrigerator or at room temperature,
depending on the time available for defrosting.
Small pieces may even be cooked still frozen, directly
from the freezer: in this case, cooking will take longer
Making ice cubes
The appliance is supplied with one ice tray.
Fill the tray 3/4 full to give the ice space to expand
and place it in the freezer.
To release the ice cubes simply give the tray a slight
twist.
Do not use sharp or metallic instruments to remove
the ice tray from the freezer.
Cold accumulators
2 cold accumulators are supplied in the freezer;
these increase the length of time for which food will
keep in the event of a power failure or breakdown.
They must be placed in the top drawer.
Excessive temperature alarm
An increase in the temperature in a compartment
(for example due to a power failure)
is indicated by:
• Flashing temperature;
• Flashing of the icon ;
• Sounding of buzzer.
When normal conditions are restored:
• The acoustic signal shuts off;
• The temperature value continues to flash;
When you press key "E" to de-activate the alarm,
the highest temperature reached appears on display
for a few seconds. It then returns to the
normal operation showing the selected
temperature.
During the alarm phase, the buzzer can be switched
off by pressing key E.
