CHAPTER -8: TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY
1. Install the appliance in a cool, well-ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight and not near a heat source (such as
a radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating plate should be used.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool before placing them inside the appliance.
3. Place thawing food in the refrigerator compartment. The low temperature of the frozen food will help cool the
refrigerator compartment while the food is thawing. This will save energy. Frozen food left to thaw outside of the
appliance will result in a waste of energy.
4. Drinks or other liquids should be covered when inside the appliance. If left uncovered, the humidity inside the
appliance will increase, therefore the appliance uses more energy. Keeping drinks and other liquids covered helps
preserve their smell and taste.
5. Avoid keeping the doors open for long periods and opening the doors too frequently as warm air will enter the
appliance and cause the compressor to switch on unnecessarily often.
6. Keep the covers of the different temperature compartments (such as the crisper and chiller) closed.
7. The door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
8. Energy consumption is declared with maximum load and using only bottom freezer drawer and bottom glass shelf.
