Energy Saving Tips
• Do not install the appliance near cookers, radiators or other sources of warmth. High ambient tempera-
tures cause longer, more frequent operation of the compressor.
• Ensure sufficient air circulation and exhaust at the appliance base and at the back wall of the appli-
ance. Never cover air vent openings.
• Do not place warm foods into the appliance. Allow warm foods to cool first.
• Only leave door open as long as necessary.
• Do not set temperature any colder than necessary.
• Check the storage temperature in the freezer on a thermometer.
• Put frozen food in the fridge to defrost. The cold in the frozen food will then be used to cool the
fridge.
• Always keep the heat emitting condenser, the metal grille on the rear wall of your appliance clean.
