Before placing food in the fresh food or freezer compartments
Remove all internal packaging. Ensure that all transit clips are removed from the
●
●
refrigerator. These are small rubber stoppers located at the back of the shelves.
Clean the inside of the appliance with a mix of warm water and a small amount of liquid
●
●
detergent, and a soft cloth to remove manufacturing and transportation dust.
Allow the refrigerator and freezer to run empty for 2 – 3 hours to allow each
●
●
compartment to cool to the appropriate temperature.
The appliance may have an odour on its initial operation, but this will go when the
●
●
refrigerator and freezer have cooled sufficiently.
Energy efficiency
For the most energy efficient use of your appliance:
Ensure your refrigerator has adequate ventilation.
●
●
Do not cover your appliance with any material that will prevent air from flowing around
●
●
the cabinet sides.

●
●
accumulation. Also keep the appliance and it's cabinetry free of dust by wiping down
with a dry, lint-free cloth (refer to section 'Cleaning and caring for your refrigerator',
'Cabinet surround').
Allow good clearances in front of air ducts within the cabinet for maximum cold air
●
●
distribution.
Cool hot foods down before placing them in the appliance.
●
●
Do not overfill the compartments.
●
●
Keep door openings to a minimum.
●
