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.
