13 Tips for saving energy
Do not place the appliance close to stoves, heaters or other heat sources. With
high ambient temperatures, the compressor runs more frequently and for
longer. This leads to unavoidable high power consumption.
Make sure that there is sufficient aeration and ventilation at the appliance base
and to the back of the appliance. Ventilation openings must never be covered.
The door should only remain open for as long as required.
The door seals of your appliance must be fully intact so that the doors close
correctly.
Do not set the temperature any lower than required.
14 Disposal of old appliances
Ensure that old appliances are disposed of in an environmentally friendly
manner. Make disused old appliances unusable prior to disposal. Pull the mains
plug out of the socket and disconnect the plug from the mains cable.
