Care & Maintenance

Energy saving tips

• Try not to open the door too often, espe-
cially when the weather is wet and hot.
Once you open the door, close it as soon
as possible.
• Every now and then check that the appli-
ance is sufficiently ventilated (adequate
air circulation behind the appliance).
• Under normal temperature conditions,
please place the thermostat at the
middle setting.
• Before loading the appliance with pack-
ages of fresh food, make sure they are
cooled down to ambient temperature.
• Ice and frost layer increase energy con-
sumption, so clean the appliance as soon
as the layer is 3-5 mm thick.
• If your model has an external condenser,
the rear wall should be always be kept
free of dust or impurities.
• The appliance should be located in the
coolest area of the room, away from heat
producing appliances or heating ducts,
and out of reach of direct sunlight.
• 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
buildup inside the appliance.
• Appliance storage bins should not be
lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or
paper towels. Liners interfere with cold
air circulation, making the appliance less
efficient.
• Organize and label food to reduce door
openings and extended searches. Re-
move as many items as needed at one
time, and close the door as soon as pos-
sible.

on the back of the unit are damaged prior
to disposal.
