Energy saving tips
• Try not to open the door too often,
especially when the weather is wet
and hot. Once you open the door,
close it as soon as possible.
• Every now and then check that the
appliance is sufficiently ventilated
(adequate air circulation behind the
appliance).
• Under normal temperature condi-
tions, please place the thermostat
at the middle setting.
• Before loading the appliance with
packages of fresh food, make sure
they are cooled down to ambient
temperature.
• Ice and frost layer increase energy
consumption, so clean the appliance
as soon as the layer is 3-5 mm
thick.
• If your model has an external con-
denser, the rear wall should be al-
ways be kept free of dust or impuri-
ties.
• The appliance should be located in
the coolest area of the room, away
from heat producing appliances or
heating ducts, and out of reach of
direct sunlight.
• Overloading the appliance forces
the compressor to run longer.
• Foods that freeze too slowly may
lose quality, or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and
wipe containers dry before placing
them in the appliance. This cuts
down on frost buildup inside the ap-
pliance.
• Appliance storage bins should not
be lined with aluminum foil, wax
paper, or paper towels. Liners inter-
fere with cold air circulation, mak-
ing the appliance less efficient.
• Organize and label food to reduce
door openings and extended
searches. Remove as many items as
needed at one time, and close the
door as soon as possible.
Disposal
Old units still have some residual
value. An environmentally friendly
method of disposal will ensure that
valuable raw materials can be recov-
ered and used again.
The refrigerant used in your unit and
insulation materials require special
disposal procedures. Ensure that
none of the pipes on the back of the
unit are damaged prior to disposal.
Up to date information concerning
options of disposing of your old unit
and packaging from the new one, can
be obtained from your local council
office.
When disposing of an old unit, break
old locks or latches and remove the
door as a safeguard.
