Place your fridge away from direct sunlight, your oven or any other heat sources. Allow 20 cm
clear space on both sides and above, and at least 5 cm behind.
Cover all food stored, and arrange it so that cold air can circulate freely.
Higher cold setting will use more energy. Do not set to maximum cold if it is not necessary.
Cool the hot/warm food to room temperature before put them into your fridge.
Frequently open and close door would cause internal temperature rise and it will consume more
energy.
Close the door(s) properly, and make sure the seals and hinges are airtight. Check the seals by
putting a sheet of paper between the door and the main body of the fridge. If the paper moves,
your seals need replacing.
Defrost regularly if your refrigerator is not a frost-free or cyclic defrost model. Accumulated ice
layer should not be more than 5 mm thick.
The pre-set combination of drawers, baskets and shelves have already set in the most efficient
use of this product.
