Making ice cubes The appliance is provided with one or more trays for the production of ice-cubes. Fill the trays 3/4 full to allow the ice to expand and place them in one of the freezer compartment. Do not use sharp instruments to remove the trays from the freezer. To remove the cubes twist the tray slightly or hold it under running water for a few seconds. 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. A thermostat controls the compressor, and you will hear a faint ÕclickÕ when the thermostat cuts in and out. ¥ ¥ 6 HINTS AND TIPS Food Storage To obtain the best performance from your freezer ¥ ¥ Do not store warm food or evaporating liquids. Avoid buying frozen food if you cannot store it straight away. The use of an insulated container is advisable. When you arrive home place the frozen food in the frezeer immediately. Never use metal tools for this operation. For complete defrosting (once or twice a year) proceed as follows: turn the thermostat dial to the ÇOFFÈ position (O) or disconnect the appliance from the mains. Remove any food from inside the freezer , wrap it in several sheets of newspaper and store in a cool, dry place. Leave the door open and insert the ice scraper under the channel in the centre of the lower part of the appliance; place a low-sided container beneath the scraper to collect the water (see fig. ).
