6.18 Energy saving advice

To help you achieve the optimum performance from your fridge, ARB makes the
following recommendations.
 Place the fridge in a well ventilated area which is protected from direct sunlight.
 Try to minimise the frequency with which the fridge is opened.
 Do not leave the lid open for longer than necessary.
 Avoid setting the target temperature unnecessarily low.
 Defrost the fridge once ice starts to form.

6.19 Defrosting your fridge

From time to time, ice may form on the inside of your ARB Fridge. This can reduce both
its internal capacity and its thermal efficiency. ARB recommends that you defrost your
fridge on a regular basis.
To defrost your ARB Fridge:
 Remove the contents of the fridge.
 Turn the fridge off.
 Open the lid so that the ambient temperature air will cause the ice to melt.
 Remove the drain plug and allow any water to drain from the cabinet.
 Wipe the cabinet with a soft cloth to remove any remaining water.
WARNING: Never use hard or pointed objects to defrost the fridge or to
loosen objects that have become frozen in place.
