ENERGY-SAVING TIPS
Install the fridge or freezer in a cool place out of direct sunlight
and away from cookers, heaters, dishwashers or any hot air
emitting items�
Do not set the fridge and freezer temperatures lower than
necessary� Set the internal temperature within the correct range
e�g� adjust the thermostat at middle position for 4°C in the fridge
compartment and -18°C in the freezer respectively�
Let pre-cooked foods cool down before placing them in the fridge
or freezer� This will prevent the internal temperature of the fridge
from rising�
Keep your fridge full, but not over crowded, this helps reduce
“cold” air loss� Meanwhile, avoid overloading the fridge or freezer�
Try to leave about 20% free space for air circulation�
To prevent cold air escaping, limit the frequency of opening door�
When retuning from shopping, sort foods to be kept in your
fridge before opening the door� Only open the door to put food in
or take it out�
Make sure the door seal is clean and in good condition� It should
hold a piece of paper tightly in place when shut�
Defrost regularly or when ice is more than 5mm thick� Thick ice
covering the inner sides significantly increases energy use�
The combination of the drawers, baskets and shelves shown in
the device description is optimal for efficient energy savings�
Changing the combination proposition could alter the efficiency�
NOTE:
The ambient temperature of the freshly stored food and how
often the door is opened affect the temperature in the refrigerator�
If required, change the thermostat temperature settings�
STORING FROZEN FOOD
All frozen food you purchase should be placed in the freezer as
soon as possible to avoid them from defrosting and spoiling�
All storage recommendations printed on the packaging of frozen
food by the manufacturer should always be followed�
When using the freezer for the first time or after defrosting,
set the thermostat knob to the maximum position for at least
2 hours before introducing food to be stored, and then readjust
it to the normal position�
The technical data mentioned in the ‘Specifications’ are obtained
in the case that the freezing drawers are removed�
MAKING ICE CUBES
1� Fill the ice tray with ¾ full of clean water�
2� Place the tray in the top freezing drawer�
3� Close the door�
To remove the ice cubes from the tray, put the tray under running
water for a while and then twist the tray slightly to loosen the ice
cubes�
