Where there is a high ambient
room temperature.
Temperature
setting with a
thermostat which
is approximate
(set in stages).
With a medium setting of 4. With a high setting: the lower the
temperature in the compartment,
the higher the energy
consumption.
Use
Only open the doors when
necessary and for as short a time as
possible.
Frequent opening of the doors for
long periods with cause a loss of
coldness.
Store food in an organised way. If food is not st
ored 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
will have 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-ll the appliance to
allow air to circulate.
Defrosting
Defrost the freezer compartment
when a layer of ice 3 cm thick has
built up.
A layer of ice hinders the cold
from reaching the frozen food,
and causes an increase in energy
consumption.
