VIII. TIPS ON SAVING ENERGY
•
Make sure the appliance is not placed next to a heat source.
•
Place the appliance in dry, well-ventilated space which is not in direct
sunlight.
•
You are advised to wrap food before storing it in the freezer.
•
Hot food and liquids must first be left to cool to room temperature
before being put in the freezer.
•
Make sure you leave a space between products when you store
them in the freezer to ensure air circulation.
•
Opening the door for too long or too frequently can cause the
temperature to rise. The door must be closed immediately after use.
•
Make sure that the airtight seal on the door is positioned correctly
and that air vents are not blocked.
•
Never leave frozen food to defrost at room temperature. You can
defrost food slowly by placing it in the fridge. Take care not to defrost
food above other foodstuffs.
•
If ice becomes too thick, this can affect the performance of the
freezer. When the ice is more than 5mm thick, the appliance should
be defrosted.
•
Racks, shelves and compartments have already been laid out in the
optimal positions.
