ENERGY SAVING TIPS
1. Install the appliance in a cool, well ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and
not near a heat source (such as a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate
should be used.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them inside the appliance.
3. Place thawing food in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of
the frozen food will help cool the refrigerator compartment while the food is
thawing. This will save energy. Frozen food left to thaw outside of the appliance
will result in a waste of energy.
4. Drinks or other liquids should be covered when inside the appliance. If left
uncovered, the humidity inside the appliance will increase, therefore the
appliance uses more energy. Keeping drinks and other liquids covered helps
preserve their smell and taste.
5. Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and opening the doors too
frequently as warm air will enter the appliance and cause the compressor to
switch on unnecessarily often.
6. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments ( such as the crisper
and chiller) closed.
7. The door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
