Tips For Saving Energy

1– Install the appliance in a coll, well vantilated room , but not in direct sunlight and
not near heat source (radiator, cooker.. etc). Otherwise use an insulating plate.
2– Allow ward food and drinks to cool down outside the appliance.
3– When thawing frozen food, place it in the refrigerator compartment. The low tem-
perature of the frozen food will help to cool the refrigerator compartment when it is
thawing. So it causes energy saving. If the frozen food is put out, it causes wast-
age of energy.
4– When placing, drinks and slops they must be covered. Otherwise humidity in-
creases at the appliance. Therefore the working time gets longer. Also covering
drinks and slops helps to save smell and taste.
5– When placing food and drinks, open the appliance door as briefly as possible.
6– Keep close the covers of any different temrepature compartment in the appliance
(crisper, chiller ...etc ).
7– Door gasket must be clean and pliable. Replace gaskets if worn.
