ENERGY SAVING TIPS

- The air circulates naturally, with the colder air falling be-

 

cause it is heavier. This is the reason why meat and fish should

 

be placed above the vegetable crisper.

 

- Please follow our instructions carefully on maximum stor-

 

age time: any food, even the freshest, will not remain edible

 

for any extended amount of time.

 

- Contrary to popular belief, cooked foods do not store any

 

longer than raw food.

 

- Do not store liquids in containers without covering them

 

because this will lead to an increase in the level of moisture

 

within the refrigerator, causing the formation of frost.

-Be careful not to place containers (plastic or glass), food or other objects in direct contact with the cooling area of the back wall of the refrigerator. This could harm the food, in- crease energy consumption and facilitate the formation of condensate (on food, containers, etc.).

-The refrigerator compartment is equipped with conven- ient, removable shelves (Fig. 1) which can be adjusted for height using the shelf guides. This allows you to place large items in the refrigerator.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

- Install the Appliance Properly

In other words, away from sources of heat and direct sunlight, in a well ventilated room.

- Correct Temperature Settings

Set the temperature control to one of the middle settings. Very cold temperature settings will not only consume a great deal of energy but will neither improve nor lengthen the storage life of the food. Excessively cold temperatures may ruin vegetables and cheese.

- Do not Overfill your Appliance

Remember that proper storage of food requires good air circula- tion. Overfilling your appliance will hamper proper air circula- tion and overwork the compressor.

- Close the Doors

Open your refrigerator only when necessary, remember that every time you open the door, most of the cold air will be lost. To bring the temperature back to the proper level again, the motor must run for a considerable amount of time, consuming a sub- stantial amount of energy.

- Check the Door Seal

Keep the seal clean and make sure that they adhere well to the door. This alone will ensure that no cold air escapes.

- No Hot Foods

A container of hot food placed in the refrigerator will increase the temperature significantly.

Allow food to cool before storing.
