Tips for saving energy
▯
Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room!
The appliance should not be installed in direct
sunlight or near a heat source (e.g. radiator,
cooker).
If required, use an insulating plate.
▯
Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before
placing in the appliance.
▯
Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator compartment
and use the low temperature of the frozen food
to cool refrigerated food.
▯
Open the appliance as briefly as possible.
▯
Regularly defrost the freezer compartment to
remove the layer of frost!
A layer of hoarfrost will impair refrigeration of
the frozen food and increase power consumption.
▯
Ensure that the freezer compartment door has
been closed properly.
