1. 

減少冰箱門的開閉,切勿時間過長

 

開閉次數多,冷氣向外流失,保冷效果差。

2. 

切勿塞滿過多的食物

 

一旦塞滿過多的食物,冷氣的流通循環不良,不僅無法讓冰箱內均一冷卻,而且還會消耗電力。存放食品時請適度地保留間隙。

3. 

將熱的食物放冷之後再放入冰箱

 

將熱的食物放入冰箱時,冰箱內部的

度升高,周邊食物的

度也隨之升高。

4. 

冰箱周邊應保留適當的間隙

 

若周邊無保留間隙時,冰箱無法散熱,而導致電力的浪費。

5. 

更換受損的冰箱門墊圈

 

因受損後所產生的間隙可讓冷氣流失,而導致電力的浪費。將名片等夾在其間,若因無法夾緊而滑落,請更換冰箱門的墊圈。

1. Open or close a door less frequently and quickly.

  Frequent opening and closing leads to waste of energy.

2. Do not overfill the refrigerator.

  Overfilling the refrigerator prevents a smooth circulation of cool air, precluding even cooling throughout the refrigerator and 

consuming unnecessary power. Place food at appropriate intervals.

3. Do not place hot food in the refrigerator.

  Placing hot food raises the temperature in the refrigerator, which, in turn, raises the temperature of surrounding food.

4. Provide an appropriate gap around the refrigerator.

  Installing the refrigerator with little clearance between the refrigerator and the surrounding objects prevents the release of heat and 

thus leads to the waste of power.

5. Replace a damaged door gasket.

  Cool air leaks through a damaged gasket, which leads to the waste of power. If a name card inserted between the gasket and the 

refrigerator slides down, the gasket needs replacing.
