4. Environment - energy conservation

4.1 Energy efficient use
The highest temperature will normally be in the uppermost door shelves since
they are located outside the air circulation. Here, butter will stay soft and cheese
will retain its aromatic taste. Because cold air sinks, it will normally be the coldest
at the bottom of the corner fridge. An evaporator fan is mounted on the refrig-
eration unit/ back wall, which circulates the cold air such that the temperature is
distributed in the fridge. The temperature will vary a few degrees between the top
and bottom, which is completely normal.
4.2 Measures for energy conservation
The most important energy conservation measure is avoid leaving the fridge
door open, this will cause increased running time and increased energy consump-
tion. Having good order and organization in your Corner Fridge cabinet will save
you much searching and time, and you will reduce the running time and energy
consumption.
Tips:
• Leftovers from hot food should be cooled to room temperature before they are
placed in the fridge.
• Defrost frozen goods in the fridge, since the food defrosts more gently and fro-
zen goods will emit cold to the fridge and save running time and energy.
• Avoid placing hot food in the fridge, since this increases frost formation and
increases running time.
