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 freezer temperatures lower than
necessary. Set the internal temperature within the
correct range e.g. adjust the thermostat at middle
position -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 freezer full, but not over crowded, 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 freezer 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. Defrost regularly or when ice is more
than 5mm thick. Thick ice covering the inner
sides significantly increases energy use.
