Vegetables normally cool themselves by evaporating water, and in the case of closed vents, there is risk of a build up of drops and pools of water inside. Produce that may drive large quantities include lettuces, mushrooms, broccoli and carrots. In cases where the mix contains apples and fruits, it may be a good idea to keep the vents a little open in case there is a risk of ethylene accumulation inside. Ethylene is a growth hormone released by some fruits and vegetables, that may harm some, and speed up aging of others. 4. 11 Freshzone drawer This device allows rapid cooling of foods and more uniform temperature in the drawer.

HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS 5. 1 Normal Operating Sounds • You may hear a faint gurgling and a bubbling sound when the refrigerant is pumped through the coils or tubing. • 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. • The thermic dilatation might cause a sudden cracking noise. It is natural, not dangerous physical phenomenon. This is correct. 5. 2 Hints for energy saving • Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than absolutely necessary. • If the ambient temperature is high and the Temperature Regulator is set to low ENGLISH 15 temperature and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If this happens, set the Temperature Regulator toward warmer settings to allow automatic defrosting and so a saving in electricity consumption. 5. 3 Hints for fresh food refrigeration To obtain the best performance: • 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 5. 4 Hints for refrigeration Useful hints: Meat (all types) : wrap in polythene bags and place on the glass shelf above the vegetable drawer.
