How to make ice-cubes
o The recommended thermostat position for making ice-cubes is
on the middle setting.
o Fill 2/3 of an ice-tray with cold water. Insert the ice-tray into the
guides or on the cooling plate of the freezer compartment.
o The time required for the ice to form largely depends on the
ambient temperature, thermostat setting and on how often the
door is opened. It usually takes 2-6 hours.
o The easiest way to empty the ice-tray is to turn the tray around
and pour it with cold water and slightly twist and bend it.
Saving energy when using your fridge-freezer
Installing:
o Install the appliance in a cool position. If it is placed in direct
sunlight or next to an oven or other heat source, the energy
consumption can increase substantially.
o Ensure the appliance is installed with the correct ventilation
requirements. Restricting ventilation can increase the energy
consumption by 15%.
Cleaning and Maintenance:
o Occasionally clean the condenser coils (if present) at the back of
the appliance to maintain a high performance level.
o Defrost the freezer compartment regularly. A build up of thick ice
decreases the efficiency of the appliance. You should defrost
whenever the frost reaches 5 mm thickness.
o Clean the door gasket with warm water or a neutral detergent
that leaves no residue. A tight-sealing door gasket is critical to
the efficiency of your appliance.
