Energy saving tips
Defrosting
•
Place your fridge 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.
•
Cover all food stored, and arrange it so that cold air can circulate freely.
•
Higher cold setting will use more energy. Do not set to maximum cold if it is not necessary.
•
Cool the hot/warm food to room temperature before put
ting
them into your fridge.
•
Frequently open
ing
and clos
ing the
door would cause
the
internal temperature
to
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 if your refrigerator is not a frost-free or cyclic defrost model. Accumulated ice layer
should not be more than 5 mm thick.
•
The pre-set combination of drawers, baskets and shelves have already
been
set in the most efficient
way for
use of this product.
Fridge Compartment
•
The fridge compartment defrosts automatically. The defrosting water runs
through the drain port to the drain tray at the back of the appliance.
•
In
the
case, th
at
some droplets may remain inside the compartment and re-freeze,
after the defrosting cycle, this is normal. Do not use pointed or sharp objects, i.e. knives or forks, to
remove the droplets which have frozen.
•
Check the collection channel to ensure that no food particle
s
have blocked the drain channel.
