3.4. Energy Saving Advice 
 

  Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a cooker, 

dishwasher or radiator. 

  Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and make sure that 

the air vents are clear. 

  Try to avoid keeping the door open for a long time, warm air will enter the 

cabinet and may cause a build up of ice as well as affecting the energy 
consumption. Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from 
closing properly. 

  Ensure that the door seal is clean and there are no tears or splits. 

  Keep the most perishable foods, (those with a short shelf-life, such as 

cooked meats), in the coldest part of the fridge. The Salad Crisper Box is 
the warmest part of your fridge and should be used for vegetables, salads 
and fruits etc. (see Description of Appliance on Page 3). 

  Do not overload the fridge: the cooling air that circulates to keep the 

fridge cold gets blocked and pockets of warm air form. 

  Do not put hot food into the fridge – let it cool down first.

 

 
 

3.5. In the Event of a Power Failure 

 

If there is a power failure, keep the door closed.  When the power has been 
restored the appliance will start to operate but it may take some time to achieve the 
pre-set operating temperature.  Check the condition of your stored food items and 
liquids.
