TIPS FOR ENERGY SAVING
Try not to open the door too o
ft
en, especially when the weather is wet and hot. Once you open
the door, close it as soon as possible.
Every now and then check if the appliance is su
ffi
ciently ven
ti
lated (adequate air circula
ti
on
behind the appliance).
In normal temperature condi
ti
ons, please arrange the thermostat at the middle se
tti
ng.
Before loading the appliance with packages of fresh food, make sure they are cooled to ambient
temperature.
Ice and frost layer increase energy consump
ti
on, so clean the appliance as soon as the layer is 3-5
mm thick.
If it is the outer condenser, the rear wall should be always clean free of dust or any impuri
ti
es.
◆
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from heat producing
appliances or hea
ti
ng ducts, and out of the direct sunlight.
◆
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance. Overloading the
appliance forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too slowly may lose quality, or
spoil.
◆
Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance.
This cuts down on frost build-up inside the appliance.
◆
Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper toweling.
Liners interfere with cold air circula
ti
on, making the appliance less e
ffi
cient.
◆
Organize and label food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as many
items as needed at one
ti
me, and close the door as soon as possible.
