Tips For Saving Energy - SCHOLTES SORC1243F Manuel D'utilisation

If the edges of fridge cabinet that the
door joint contact are warm;
Especially in summer (hot weather),
the surfaces that the joint contact may
get warmer during the operation of the
compressor, this is normal.
If humidity builds up inside the fridge
freezer;
• Are all food packed properly? Are the
containers dried before placing them in
the fridge?
• Are the fridge freezeer's doors opened
frequently? Humidity of the room gets
in the fridge when the door is opened.
Humidity build up will be faster when you
open the door more frequently, especially
if the humidity of the room is high.
If the doors are not opened and closed
properly;
• Do the food packages prevent closing of
the door?
• Are the door compartments, shelves and
drawers placed properly?
• Are door joints broken or torn?
• Is your fridge freezer on a level surface?
Recommendations
To stop the appliance completely, unplug
from main socket (for cleaning and when
the door is left open).

8 TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

1. Install the appliance in a cool, well-
ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight
and not near a heat source (such as a
radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating
plate should be used.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool
before placing them inside the appliance.
3. Place thawing food in the refrigerator
compartment. The low temperature
of the frozen food will help cool the
refrigerator compartment while the food
is thawing. This will save energy. Frozen
food left to thaw outside of the appliance
will result in a waste of energy.
4. Drinks or other liquids should be
covered when inside the appliance. If
left uncovered, the humidity inside the
appliance will increase, therefore the
appliance uses more energy. Keeping
drinks and other liquids covered helps
preserve their smell and taste.
5. Avoid keeping the doors open for long
periods and opening the doors too
frequently as warm air will enter the
appliance and cause the compressor to
switch on unnecessarily often.
6. Keep the covers of the different
temperature compartments (such as the
crisper and chiller) closed.
7. The door gasket must be clean and
pliable. In case of wear, replace the
gasket.
