1.4 Saving energy
-
Always ensure good ventilation. Do not cover ventilation
openings or grille.
Always keep fan louvres clear.
-
-
Do not place appliance in areas of direct sunlight or next to a
stove, heater or similar object.
The energy consumption depends on the installation condi-
-
tions, e.g. the ambient temperature (see 1.2) .
-
Keep the time the appliance is open to a minimum.
-
The lower the temperature setting, the higher the power
consumption.
Store food logically. (see Appliance at a glance).
-
-
Ensure that all food is well packed and covered for storage.
This will prevent frost from forming.
First cool warm food to room temperature before storing it .
-
Information for testing institutes:
In order to determine the standard energy consumption
and the storage time during malfunction, the cold
storage accumulators must be arranged in accordance with
the manufacturer's loading plan.

may ignite.
Do not damage the refrigerant circuit pipes.
•
Do not allow naked flames or ignition
•
sources to enter the appliance.
Do not use any electrical appliances in the
•
interior (e.g. steam cleaners, heaters, ice
cream maker etc.).
If refrigerant escapes: remove any naked
•
flames or sources of ignition from the
leakage area. Ventilate the room well.
Notify the after-sales service.
Do not store explosives or sprays using
-
combustible propellants such as butane,
propane, pentane, etc. in the appliance. To
identify these spray cans, look for the list of
contents printed on the can, or a flame
symbol. Gases possibly escaping may ignite
due to electrical components.
