Try not to open the door too often, especially when the weather is damp and hot.
Once you open the door, close it as soon as possible.

Occasionally check if the appliance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate air circulation
behind the appliance).

Set the thermostat from higher to lower settings as soon as possible (depending on
how loaded the appliance is, ambient temperature, etc.).

Before loading items into the unit, be sure they have cooled to ambient temperature.
