The energy label provides the following information:
1) Supplier's name or trademark.
2) model identification code, provided by the supplier.
3) ranking model in energy efficiency on a scale from A + (most efficient) to G
(least efficient). The class number is the height of the corresponding arrow.
4) Power consumption, calculated in accordance with Article 1 paragraph 2
of Directive 94/2 / EC but expressed in kWh per year (that is to say by 24 ×
365), defined as "annual consumption energy in kWh, calculated on the basis
of results for 24 hours under standard conditions. Actual consumption
depends on the conditions of use and the location of the device. "
5) Sum of the useful volume of all no star compartments (that is to say,
operating at a temperature higher than -6 ° C).
6) Sum of the useful volume of all storage compartments frozen food
classified at least "one star" (that is to say that operate at a temperature less
than or equal to -6 ° C).
7) Star storage compartment frozen food as determined in accordance with
current standards. If the compartment is "no star" this section is left blank.
8) If necessary, the noise level is measured in accordance with the dirtive

Tips - Saving energy
How to arrange the drawers, bins and shelves so that the energy is
used as rationally as possible by the apparatus.
• Install the appliance in a cool, dry and properly ventilated room.
• Do not expose the unit to direct sunlight or place it near a direct source
of heat (for example, near a radiator).
• Never block the ventilation holes or grilles of the appliance.
• Allow food to cool before placing in the appliance.
• Place the frozen products in the refrigerator to thaw them.
• The low temperature of the frozen products will help cool the food in the
refrigerator.
• Defrost the freezer when ice has accumulated. A thick layer of ice can
affect the transfer of cold to frozen products and increase the energy
consumption of the appliance.
• Do not leave the appliance doors open for too long when storing or
removing food from the appliance.
