Energy Saving Tips
•
Place the unit in the coolest area of the room, away from heat-producing appliances and out of direct sunlight

Let heated items and beverages cool to room temperature before placing them into the appliance
•
Do not overload the refrigerator as it forces the compressor to run longer
•
Wrap items properly and wipe containers dry before placing them in the unit to cut down on frost build-up

circulation, reducing cooling efficiency

Do not set the thermostat to exceedingly cold temperatures
