Tips for saving energy

S Install the appliance in a cool, well
ventilated room, but not in direct
sunlight and not near a heat source
(radiator, cooker, etc.). Otherwise,
use an insulating plate.
S Allow warm food and drinks to cool
down outside the appliance.
S When thawing frozen food, place it in
the refrigerator compartment. The low
temperature of the frozen food will
then cool the food in the refrigerator
compartment.
S Open the appliance door as briefly
as possible.
S Occasionally clean the rear of the
appliance with a vacuum cleaner or
paint brush to prevent an increased
power consumption.
S There must be a gap of 60 to 75 mm
from the back wall so that the heated air
can escape without obstruction.
The gap of more than 75 mm must not
be exceeded.
