5. HINTS AND TIPS
5.1 Hints for energy saving
• The original configuration ensures the
most efficient use of energy.
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it
open longer than necessary.
• The colder the temperature setting, the
higher the energy consumption.
• Do not cover the ventilation grilles or
holes.
When the freezing process is complete, the
appliance automatically returns to the
previous temperature setting (see
"FastFreeze function").
For more information refer to "Hints for
freezing".

time or after a period out of use, activate the

compartment.
To store large quantities of food, remove the
drawers and place the food directly on the
