How to save energy
-
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 hood, oven or dishwasher.
-
The refrigerator door should remain open only as long as necessary; do not
place hot food inside the refrigerator.
-
Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as
needed at one time and close the door as soon as possible.
-
The refrigerator door should be properly closed to avoid increased energy
consumption, and the formation of excess ice and / or condensation inside.
-
Constantly circulating cold air keeps the temperature homogenous inside the
refrigerator. For this reason, it is important to properly distribute the food, in
order to facilitate the air flow.
-
Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator.
This cuts down on moisture build-up inside the unit.
-
Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air vents. 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.
-
During prolonged absences (i.e.: holidays) it is advised to disconnect the
refrigerator, remove all the food from it, and clean it throughout. The door
should be left slightly open to avoid mold and unpleasant odors. This will not
affect the refrigerator when it is reconnected.
-
During short absences, the refrigerator can remain on. However, remember
that prolonged power outages may occur while you are out.
Your Freezer is rated 4 star
When you are buying frozen food, look at the storage guidelines on the packaging.
You will be able to store each item of frozen food for the period shown against the 4
star rating. This is usually the period stated as "Best, Before", found on the front of
the packaging.
Check the Fridge/Freezer temperature
Check the temperature of the frozen food cabinet in the shop where you buy your
frozen foods. It should show a temperature lower than -18℃.
Choose packs carefully
Make sure the frozen food package is in perfect conditions.
Purchase frozen food last
Always buy frozen products last on your shopping visit to the supermarket.
