Energy Conservation Measures - Electrolux COMMERCIAL CHEST FREEZER ICE CREAM User Manual

Energy Conservation Measures

This appliance is designed for efficiency with heavy foam
insulation. However, there are things that the user can do to
maintain the appliance in operating condition.
• Do not operate the appliance any colder than necessary to
maintain safe, product storage temperatures.
• Make sure the appliance is located to prevent direct exposure
to sunlight, air ducts, etc.
• Keep the lid closed except for normal use. Inspect the lid often
to see that it self-closes and the gaskets are in good condition.
• Do not overstock the product in the cabinet because it will
block the normal air flow. See illustration below.
• Have at least annual inspections by a qualified service
company to see that the refrigerant charge is correct.
• This appliance operates more efficiently in a cooler ambient
than in a hot ambient. Try to maintain an ambient below 80ºF
(27ºC) and 65% RH (Relative Humidity) for maximum efficiency.
