ENERGY SAVING TIPS
WARNING
Connecting your refrigerator to systems that save energy is dangerous and may
cause damage on the product.
• Do not leave the doors of your refrigerator open for a long time.
• Do not put hot food or liquids in your refrigerator.
• Do not overload the refrigerator. Cooling capacity will decrease when the air circulation in
the refrigerator is hindered.
• Do not place the refrigerator in places subject to direct sunlight. Install the product at least
11 3/4" (299 mm) away from heat sources such as microwaves, ovens, heater units, and
gas ranges, and at least 2" (51 mm) away from electrical ovens.
• Store food and liquids in your refrigerator inside closed containers.
• You can remove the drawer shelf of the freezer compartment to fill it with the maximum
amount of food. The energy consumption value of the freezer is determined with the shelves
and drawers removed and the freezer filled with maximum amount of food. There is no
harm in using a shelf to store appropriately sized food items.
• Thawing frozen foods in the refrigerator compartment both saves energy and preserves the
quality of the foods.
ATTENTION
The temperature of the room where your refrigerator is located should at least
be 61 °F (16 °C). Operating your refrigerator under cooler conditions is not
recommended in terms of energy efficiency.
ATTENTION
The inside of your refrigerator must be cleaned thoroughly.
ATTENTION
If two units are to be installed side by side, there should be at least 1 1/2"
(38 mm) of distance between them.
