Tips for saving energy

Install the appliance in a dry, well
■
ventilated room! The appliance should
not be installed in direct sunlight or
near a heat source (e.g. radiator,
cooker).
If required, use an insulating plate.
Do not block the ventilation openings
■
in the appliance.
Allow warm food and drinks to cool
■
down before placing in the appliance.
Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator
■
compartment and use the low
temperature of the frozen food to cool
refrigerated food.
Open the appliance as briefly as
■
possible.
Ensure that the freezer compartment
■
door is always closed properly.
To avoid increased power
■
consumption, occasionally clean the
back of the appliance.
If available:
■
Fit wall spacers to obtain the indicated
energy rating of the appliance (see
Installation instructions). A reduced
wall gap will not restrict the function
of the appliance. The energy rating
may then increase slightly. The gap
of 75 mm must not be exceeded.
The arrangement of the fittings does
■
not affect the energy rating of the
appliance.
