How to save energy

Increased energy
consumption
In an enclosed, unventilated room.
In direct sunlight.
Near to a heat source (radiator,
oven).
Where there is a high ambient room
temperature.
With a high setting: the lower the
temperature in the compartment, the
higher the energy consumption.
On appliances with winter setting,
please make sure that the winter
setting is switched off when the
ambient temperature is warmer than
16 °C .
Frequent opening of the door for
long periods will cause a loss of
coldness.
Searching for an item will mean the
door is open for longer.
Hot food will cause the refrigerator
unit to run for a long time, as the
appliance will have to work harder
to reduce the temperature.
The evaporation or condensation of
liquids will cause a loss of coldness
in the refrigerator.
A layer of ice hinders the cold from
reaching the frozen food, and
increases energy consumption.
