Tips for saving energy

▯
Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room!
The appliance should not be installed in direct
sunlight or near a heat source (e.g. radiator,
cooker).
If required, use an insulating plate.
▯
Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before
placing in the appliance.
▯
Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator compartment
and use the low temperature of the frozen food
to cool refrigerated food.
▯
Open the appliance as briefly as possible.
▯
The ice packs slow down the thawing process of
the frozen food in the event of a power failure or
malfunction. Place the ice packs directly on
the food in the top compartment.
▯
Ensure that the freezer compartment door is
always closed properly.
▯
The arrangement of the fittings does not affect
the energy rating of the appliance.
▯
To prevent increased power consumption,
occasionally clean the ventilation opening with
a paint brush or vacuum cleaner.
