• Do not install the appliance close to sources of heat, such as a cooker, dishwasher or radiator.
• Locate the appliance in a cool well-ventilated room and make sure that the air vents are clear.
• Try to avoid keeping the doors open for a long time, as warm air will enter the cabinet and
may cause a build-up of ice as well as affecting the energy consumption. Ensure there are no
obstructions preventing the doors from closing properly.
• Ensure that the door seals are clean and there are no tears or splits.
• Keep the most perishable foods, (those with a short shelf-life, such as cooked meats), in the
coldest part of the fridge. The Salad Crisper Box is the warmest part of your fridge and should be
used for vegetables, salads and fruits etc.
• Do not overload the appliance: the cooling air that circulates and keeps the appliance cold gets
blocked, and pockets of warm air form.
• Do not put hot food into the fridge or freezer –let it cool down first.
ENERGY SAVING ADVICE
• Store fresh food in airtight boxes or wrap in bags or foil which are suitable for freezing.
• Do not allow frozen food to come in to direct contact with food to be frozen.
• Pre-frozen food must be placed in the freezer as quickly as possible after purchasing.
• To prevent frost damage to fresh vegetables or fruits they must be processed appropriately before
being placed into the freezer compartment.
• You must always follow the storage guidelines printed on all food packaging.
