USING THE REFRIGERATOR
EFFICIENTLY
Practical everyday tips
•
Do not place fridges or freezers next to radiators, heaters, stoves or
in direct sunlight.
•
Make sure that air vents are not covered up and clean the dust off
them once or twice a year.
•
Select the right temperature: 6 to 8°C in your refrigerator and -18°C
in your freezer is sufficient.
•
When on holiday, turn up the temperature in your fridge.
•
Only open your fridge or freezer when necessary. It helps if you know
what food each contains and where it is located. Return food to the
fridge or freezer as soon as possible after you have used it so that it
does not warm up too much.
•
Wipe the inside of your fridge regularly with a cloth soaked in a mild
detergent. Appliances which are not self-defrosting will require regu-
lar defrosting. Do not allow frost layers thicker than 10 mm to form.
•
Keep the seal around the door clean, otherwise it will not shut prop-
erly. Always replace broken seals.
