HINT and TIPS

Saving energy

· Pay careful attention to where the
cabinet is placed. See the section
"Installation". When installed correctly,
the cabinet will consume less energy.
· Try to avoid keeping the door open
for long periods, or opening the door
too frequently as warm air will enter the
cabinet, and cause the compressor to
switch on unnecessarily often.
· Ensure there are no obstructions
preventing the door from closing
properly.
· Thaw frozen food in the fridge. This
will ensure safer defrosting of foods
and reduce the work of the
refrigeration unit
· It is advisable to periodically clean the
refrigeration system at the back of the
appliance with a duster or vacuum
cleaner.
· Food which is to be frozen (when
cool) should be placed in the fridge
before being transfered to the freezer.
· Avoid unnecessary frosting in the
cabinet by packing all foodstuffs into
airtight packages before placing them
in the freezer.
· Carefully follow the advice on freezing
products in the section "Using the
freezer". This will prevent wasting
energy.
· Do not set the temperature too low in
the freezer. A suitable temperature is in
the range of -18°C to -20°C .
· Make sure the door gasket is
complete and always clean.

Food Storage

· To obtain the best results from your
appliance, neither hot foods nor liquids
which may evaporate, should be
placed in the larder compartment.
· Avoid buying frozen food if you can
not store it straight away. The use of
an insulated container is advisable.
When you arrive home place the
frozen food in the freezer immediately.
· Ensure that food placed in the freezer
is dated and labelled and used in date
order to ensure that food is consumed
at its best. Remove suspect food from
you appliance and clean, refer to
cleaning and maintenance.

Protect the environment

· Hand over the cabinet packaging
and discarded fridges and freezers to a
recycling station. Contact your local
council or Environmental Health office
for more information.
