Tips For Saving Energy - Sauber 5-186I-C Serie Manual De Usuario

The door does not open or close
properly
Check if:
• There is food or packaging preventing the
door from closing
• The door compartments, shelves and
drawers are placed correctly
• The door joints are broken or torn
• Your freezer is on a level surface.
Important Notes:
• In the case of a power failure, or if the
appliance is unplugged and plugged in
again, the gas in the cooling system of
your freezer will destabilise, causing the
compressor protective thermal element
to open. Your freezer will start to operate
normally after 5 minutes.
• If the appliance will not be used for a long
period of time (such as during holidays),
disconnect the plug. Defrost and clean
the freezer, leaving the door open to
prevent the formation of mildew and
odour.
• If the problem persists after you have
followed all the instructions above,
please consult the nearest Authorised
Service Centre.

not suitable for commercial or common

8 TIPS FOR SAVING ENERGY

1. Install the appliance in a cool, well-
ventilated room, but not in direct sunlight
and not near a heat source (such as a
radiator or oven) otherwise an insulating
plate should be used.
2. Allow warm food and drinks to cool
before placing them inside the appliance.
3. Drinks or other liquids should be
covered when inside the appliance. If
left uncovered, the humidity inside the
appliance will increase, therefore the
appliance uses more energy. Keeping
drinks and other liquids covered helps
preserve their smell and taste.
4. Avoid keeping the doors open for long
periods and opening the doors too
frequently as warm air will enter the
appliance and cause the compressor to
switch on unnecessarily often.
5. The door gasket must be clean and
pliable. In case of wear, if your gasket
is detachable, replace the gasket. If not
detachable, you have to replace the
door.
