4.1 Things to be done
for saving energy
A
Connecting your refrigerator
to systems that save energy
is dangerous as they may
cause damage on the
product.
•
Do not leave the doors of your
refrigerator open for a long time.
•
Do not put hot food or drinks in
your refrigerator.
•
Do not overload the refrigerator.
Cooling capacity will fall when the
air circulation in the refrigerator is
hindered.
•
Do not place the refrigerator in
places subject to direct sunlight.
Install the product at least 30 cm
away from heat sources such as
hobs, ovens, heater units and
stoves and at least 5 cm away from
electrical ovens.
•
Pay attention to store your food in
refrigerator in closed containers.
•
To be able store maximum food in
the freezer compartment of your
refrigerator, the upper drawer has
to be removed and placed on top
of glass shelf. Power consumption
stated for your refrigerator has
been determined after removing
the icematic and the upper drawers
as to allow maximum loading. It is
strongly recommended to use the
lower drawers in the freezer and
the multizone compartment while
loading.
•
Airflow should not be blocked by
placing foods in front of the freezer
and the multizone compartment
fans. Foods should be loaded by
leaving minimum 5 cm space in
front of the protective fan grid.
•
Thawing the frozen foods in the
fridge compartment both saves
energy and reserves the quality of
the foods.
•
Since hot and humid air will not directly
penetrate into your product when the
doors are not opened, your product will
optimize itself in conditions sufficient
to protect your food. Functions and
components such as compressor, fan,
heater, defrost, lighting, display and so
on will operate according to the needs
to consume minimum energy under
these circumstances.
C
Temperature of the room
where your refrigerator
is located should at least
be
10
º
C /50°F
. Operating
your refrigerator under
cooler conditions is not
recommended with regard
to its efficiency.
C
Inside of your refrigerator
must be cleaned
thoroughly.
C
If two coolers are to be
installed side by side,
there should be at least
4 cm distance between
them.
