HELPFUL HINTS AND TIPS
Energy saving tips
We recommend that you follow the tips
below to save energy.
• Try to avoid keeping the door open
for long periods in order to conserve
energy.
• Ensure the appliance is away from any
sources of heat (Direct sunlight, electric
oven or cooker etc).
• Don't set the temperature colder than
necessary.
• Don't store warm food or evaporating
liquid in the appliance.
• Place the appliance in a well ventilated,
humidity free, room. Please refer to
Installing your new appliance chapter.
• View 1 under the "Description of
the appliance" section shows the
correct arrangement for the drawers,
crisper and shelves, do not adjust the
combination as this is designed to be
the most energy efficient configuration.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
• Do not place hot food directly into
the refrigerator or freezer, the internal
temperature will increase resulting in
the compressor having to work harder
and will consume more energy.
• Do cover or wrap the food, particularly
if it has a strong flavor.
• Place food properly so that air can
circulate freely around it.
Hints for refrigeration
• Meat (All Types) Wrap in polythene
food: wrap and place on the glass shelf
above the vegetable drawer. Always
follow food storage times and use by
dates suggested by manufacturers.
• Cooked food, cold dishes, etc.:
They should be covered and may be
placed on any shelf.
• F ruit and vegetables:
They should be stored in the special
drawer provided.
• Butter and cheese:
Should be wrapped in airtight foil or
plastic film wrap.
• Milk bottles:
Should have a lid and be stored in the
door racks.
Hints for freezing
• When first starting-up or after a period
out of use, let the appliance run at least
2 hours on the higher settings before
putting food in the compartment.
• Prepare food in small portions to
enable it to be rapidly and completely
frozen and to make it possible to
subsequently thaw only the quantity
required.
• Wrap up the food in aluminum foil or
polyethylene food wraps which are
airtight.
• Do not allow fresh, unfrozen food to
touch the food which is already frozen
to avoid temperature rise of the latter.
• Iced products, if consumed immedi-
ately after removal from the freezer
compartment, will probably cause frost
burns to the skin.
• It is recommended to label and date
each frozen package in order to keep
track of the storage time.
Hints for the storage of frozen food
• Ensure that frozen food has been
stored correctly by the food retailer
• Once defrosted, food will deteriorate
rapidly and should not be re-frozen.
Do not exceed the storage period
indicated by the food manufacturer.
