Energy Saving Tips
We recommend that you follow the tips below
to save energy.
Try to avoid keeping the door open for long
periods in order to conserve energy. Ensure
the appliance is away from any sources of
heat (direct sunlight, electric oven or cooker
etc.)
Don't set the temperature colder than
necessary.
Don't store warm food or evaporating liquid
in the appliance.
Place the appliance in a well ventilated,
humidity free room. Please refer to the
Installing your New Appliance chapter.
If the diagram shows the correct combination
for the drawers, crisper and shelves, do not
adjust the combination as this is designed to be
the most energy efficient configuration.
Tips for Fresh Food Refrigeration
Do not place hot food directly into the
refrigerator or freezer, the internal temperature
will increase resulting in the compressor having
to work harder, and consume more energy.
Do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has
a strong flavor.
Place food properly so that air can circulate
freely around it.
Tips for Refrigeration
For Meat: (all types) wrap in cling wrap and
place on the glass shelf above the vegetable
drawer. Always follow food storage times and
use by dates suggested by manufacturers.
Cooked food, cold dishes, etc.:
These should be covered and placed on any
shelf.
Fruit and vegetables:
These should be stored in the special drawer provided.
Butter and cheese:
Should be wrapped in airtight foil or plastic film
wrap.
Milk bottles:
Should have a lid and be stored in the door
bins.
Tips for Freezing
When first starting-up or after a period of no use,
let the appliance run at least 2 hours on the
higher settings before putting food in the
compartment.
Prepare food in small portions to enable it to
be rapidly and completely frozen and to make it
possible to subsequently thaw only the
quantity required.
Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or cling
wraps which are airtight.
Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to touch the
food which is already frozen to avoid
temperature rise of the latter.
Iced products, (ice cubes, popsicles):
If consumed immediately after removal from the
freezer compartment, will probably cause
frost burns to the skin.
It is recommended to label and date each
frozen package in order to keep track of the
storage time.
Hints for the Storage of Frozen Food
Ensure that frozen food has been stored
correctly by the food retailer.
Once defrosted, food will deteriorate rapidly
and should not be re-frozen. Do not exceed
the storage period indicated by the food
manufacturer.
