Tips for saving energy
■ Install the appliance in a dry, well
ventilated room! The appliance should
not be installed in direct sunlight or
near a heat source (e.g. radiator,
cooker).
If required, use an insulating plate.
■ Allow warm food and drinks to cool
down before placing in the appliance!
■ When thawing frozen products, place
them in the refrigerator. Use the
coldness of the frozen food to cool
food.
■ Regularly defrost the freezer
compartment to remove the layer of
frost!
A layer of hoarfrost will impair refrigeration of the frozen food and increase power consumption.
■ Open the appliance as briefly
as possible.
■ Occasionally clean the rear of the
appliance to prevent an increased
power consumption.
■ If available: Fit wall spacers to obtain
the indicated energy rating of the
appliance (see Installation
instructions). A reduced wall gap will
not restrict the function of the
appliance. The energy rating may then
change slightly. The gap of 75 mm
must not be exceeded.
