Energy saving tips
• The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room,
away from heat producing appliances or heating ducts, and avoiding
direct sunlight.
• Let hot food cool to room temperature before placing it in the
refrigerator. Please note that overloading the appliance forces the
compressor to run longer. Also, food that freezes too slowly may lose
quality, or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap food properly, and wipe containers dry before placing
them in the appliance. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the
appliance.
• The appliance’s storage bin should not be lined with aluminium foil,
wax paper, or paper towelling. Liners interfere with cold air circulation,
making the appliance less efficient.
• Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended
searches. Remove as many items as needed at once, and then close
the door as soon as possible.
