Energy saving tips
The following guidelines and recommendations are suggested to obtain the best results and storage
hygiene.
Frequent door openings can cause internal temperature rise so the door shall be closed as soon as
possible after use.
For hygiene reasons, it is always a good practise to pack, wrap and cover the food before storing.
Food shall cool to room temperature before storing.
Do not fill the appliance with too much food: cold air must circulate freely for food to be preserved
properly.
Never re-freeze anything that has thawed out unless you cook it again, to kill off harmful bacteria.
Never re-freeze thawed shellfish.
Re-seal packs properly after removing items. This prevents drying or ‘freezer burn’ and a build up of
frost on any remaining food.
Place your freezer away from direct sunlight, your oven or any other heat sources. Allow 20 cm clear
space on both sides and above, and at least 5 cm behind.
Higher cold setting will use more energy. Do not set to maximum cold if it is not necessary.
Frequently open and close door would cause internal temperature rise and it will consume more
energy.
Close the door(s) properly, and make sure the seals and hinges are airtight. Check the seals by putting
a sheet of paper between the door and the main body of the fridge. If the paper moves, your seals
need replacing.
Defrost regularly. Accumulated ice layer should not be more than 5 mm thick.
