ENERGY-SAVING TIPS • Install the appliance in a dry, well ventilated room far away from any heat source (e.g. radiator, cooker, etc.) and in a place not exposed directly to the sun. If required, use an insulating plate. • To guarantee adequate ventilation follow installation instructions. • Insufficient ventilation on back of the product increases energy consumption and decreases cooling efficiency. • The internal temperatures of the appliance may be affected by the ambient temperature, frequency of door opening, as well as location of the appliance. Temperature setting should take into consideration these factors. • Allow warm food and drinks to cool down before placing in the appliance. • Do not obstruct the fan (if available) with food items. • After placing the food check if the door of compartments closes properly, especially the freezer door. • Reduce to a minimum door opening. • When thawing frozen food, place them in the refrigerator. The low temperature of the frozen products cools the food in the refrigerator. • Appliances could have special compartments (Fresh Food Compartment, Zero Degree Box,...). In case not differently specified in the specific booklet of product, they can be removed, maintaining equivalent performances. • Positioning of the shelves in the refrigerator has no impact on the efficient usage of energy. Food should be placed on the shelves in such way to ensure proper air circulation (food should not touch each other and distance between food and rear wall should be kept). • You can increase storage capacity of frozen food by removing baskets and, if present, Stop Frost shelve, maintaining an equivalent energy consumption. • Damaged gasket must be replaced as soon as possible. • High energy class products are fitted with highefficiency motors that remain operational for longer, but have a low power consumption. Do not worry if the engine continues to run for longer periods. 7 400010833140 GB 09/15
