The refrigerator compartment



The refrigerator compartment is intended for the short-term storage of fresh food and
drinks.

Never keep any dangerous or poisonous substances inside the refrigerator.



Do not store explosive substances, volatile liquids, or containers with propellant gas
(spray cans) in the refrigerator.



Do not obstruct the air circulation inside the refrigerator by covering the shelves.



Foods with strong aromas should be stored in sealed containers to prevent flavour
transfer to other foods.



Bottles are best stored upright in the door balcony.



Store alcohol in tightly closed containers and only in an upright position



Allow hot foods to cool to room temperature before storing them in the refrigerator.



Clean fresh food and vegetables before storing them in the crisper.



Do not place frozen foods over the crisper cover for thawing purposes (fig7). Other
shelves may be used for this purpose.



Always pack or wrap food, or put it in a suitable container, before storing it in the re-
frigerator.

Wrap food which is not suitable for storage at cold temperatures in polyethylene bags
(pineapple, melons, cucumbers, tomatoes etc.).

Odour filter.

formation of unpleasant odours in the refrigerator.



To clean the filter, remove the plastic cover ( fig 13)



Place the filter where it may br exposed to direct sunlight for a day. This cleans and re-
juvenates the filter.



Re-fit the filter after this time.

Normal operating noise



Hard surfaces such as ceramic floor tiles, wooden floors, walls and kitchen cabinets
may amplify or deflect the operating sounds making them more noticeable .



Typical noises associated with a modern refrigeration system are:



A compressor hum, gas expansion and gurgling sounds.



These sounds are normal and are usually an indication that the refrigerator is operating
properly.
