Saving energy

Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room.
■
The appliance must be installed out of direct sunlight
and away from heat sources (e.g. heating elements,
cooker).
Use an insulating plate if necessary.
Allow hot food and drinks to cool before placing
■
them in the appliance.
Place frozen food in the fridge compartment to
■
defrost and utilise the low temperature of the frozen
food to cool other food.
Only open the appliance doors for as short a time as
■
possible.
To prevent the food warming up quickly in the event
■
of a power cut or a fault, place blocks of ice in the
top compartment directly on top of the food.
Make sure that the freezer compartment door is
■
always closed.
The arrangement of the fittings has no effect on the
■
energy consumption of the appliance.
To prevent increased power consumption,
■
occasionally clean the air vent with a soft brush or
vacuum cleaner.
