How to save energy
01. Install the refrigerator in the coolest part of the room, out of direct
sunlight and away from heating ducts or registers. Do not place the
refrigerator next to heat- producing appliances such as a range, oven or
dishwasher.
02. The refrigerator door should remain open only as long as necessary; do
not place hot food inside the refrigerator.
03. Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many
items as needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
04. The refrigerator door should be properly closed to avoid increased
energy consumption, and the formation of excess ice and/or
condensation inside.
05. Constantly circulating cold air keeps the temperature homogenous
inside the refrigerator. For this reason, it is important to properly
distribute the food, to facilitate the flow of air.
06. Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the
refrigerator. This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit.
07. Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold airvents. Doing so
causes the refrigerator to run longer and use more energy. Shelves
should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling.
Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the refrigerator less
efficient, which could cause food spoilage.
08. Do not hang clothing, cloths or objects on the condenser, located
behind the refrigerator. This will affect its functioning, causing strain on
the compressor (motor) and increase energy consumption.
09. During prolonged absences (example: vacations) it is advisable to
disconnect the refrigerator, remove all the food, and clean it. The door
should be left slightly open to avoid mold and unpleasant odors. This
will not affect the refrigerator when it is reconnected.
10. During short absences (ex.: holidays), the refrigerator can remain on.
However, remember that prolonged power outages may occur while you
are gone.
Transportation
To move the refrigerator, do not lean it to the right side of the person facing
it. For short distances, lean it back or to one of its sides, to a 30° angle at
most. For long distances, such as when moving, keep it in an upright
position.
Defrosting
Always defrost the freezer compartment when ice reach 3 to 4 milimeter
high.
01. When the refrigerator working for a period of time ,the inner surface of
the chilled room will be covered with a layer of white frost.It may raise
the electricity consumption and lessen the effect of refrigeration.Then
you should do frost removement at once.
02. When defrosting,cut off the power ,open the door and move frozen
foods to a shady and cooling place,defrost with a plastic scraper,or let
the temperature rise naturally till frost melts.Then wipe away remaining
ice and water,and switch on electricity again.
03. After defrosting ,clear away defrosting water in water pan as soon as
possible.
Never use sharp metal tools because it will damage the refrigerator.
Making and removing ice cubes
Fill the ice tray with water to just below the line and place it in the evaporator.
The ice cubes will form after approximately 2 to 3 hours. To make ice faster,
set the thermostat to "MAX".
Twist the ice tray gently with both hands in opposite directions to loosen the
ice cubes. Do not twist it from top to bottom, it could break.
How to disconnect the refrigerator
Pull the plug out. Remove the ice trays and food.
Leave the door slightly open for air to circulate and to dehumidify both
sections.
Whenever you disconnect the refrigerator, wait at least 10 minutes before
turning it on again.
If you intend to disconnect the refrigerator for a long period of time, you
should unplug it and then clean it thoroughly. Be sure to leave the door
slightly open and leave it in a well ventilated place to avoid unpleasant odors.
