Use Only open the door when
necessary and for as short a time
as possible.
Frequent opening of the door for
long periods will cause a loss of
coldness.
Store food in an organised way. If food is not stored in an
organised way, searching for an
item will mean the door is open for
longer.
Allow hot food and drinks to cool
down before placing them in the
appliance.
Placing hot food in the appliance
will cause the compressor to run
for a long time as the appliance
has to work harder to lower the
temperature.
Store food covered or packaged. The evaporation or condensation
of liquids will cause a loss of
coldness in the refrigerator.
Place frozen food in the
refrigerator to defrost.
Do not over fill the sections to
allow air to circulate.
Defrosting Defrost the freezer section when a
layer of ice ten centimetres thick
has built up.
A layer of ice hinders the cold
from reaching the frozen food and
causes an increase in energy
consumption.
