placeitnearheatsources.

• Trytoavoidkeepingthedooropenforlongperiodsor

openingthedoortoofrequentlyinordertoconserveenergy.

• Donotfilltheappliancewithtoomuchfood:coldair

mustcirculatefreelyforfoodtobepreservedproperly.

Ifcirculationisimpeded,thecompressorwillwork

continuously.

• Donotplacehotfooddirectlyintotherefrigerator.The

internaltemperaturewillincreaseandforcethecompressor

toworkharderandwillconsumemoreenergy.

• Defrosttheapplianceificeforms(seeMaintenance).Athick

layeroficemakescoldtransferencetofoodproductsmore

difficultandresultsinincreasedenergyconsumption.

• Regularlycheckthedoorsealsandwipecleantoensure

theyarefreeofdebrisandtopreventcoldairfromescaping

(seeMaintenance).
