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.
Do not block the ventilation openings
■
in the appliance.
Allow warm food and drinks to cool
■
down before placing in the appliance!
When thawing frozen products, place
■
them in the refrigerator. Use
the coldness of the frozen food
to cool food.
Open the appliance as briefly
■
as possible.
Ensure that the freezer compartment
■
door is always closed properly.
Occasionally clean the rear
■
of the appliance with a vacuum
cleaner or paint brush to prevent
an increased power consumption.
There must be a gap of 60 mm from
■
the back wall so that the heated air
can escape without obstruction.
