5. HINTS AND TIPS

5.1 Hints for energy saving

• Fridge: The configuration with the drawers in the bottom part of the appliance and shelves evenly distributed ensures the most efficient use of energy. Position of the door bins does not affect energy consumption.

• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer than necessary.

• Freezer: The colder the temperature setting, the higher the energy consumption.

• Fridge: Do not set too high temperature unless it is required by the characteristics of the food.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the temperature control is set to low temperature and the appliance is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously, causing frost or ice

formation on the evaporator. In this case, set the temperature control toward higher temperature to allow automatic defrosting.

• Do not cover the ventilation grilles or holes.

5.2 Hints for freezing

• Do not freeze bottles or cans with liquids, in particular drinks containing carbon dioxide. They may explode during freezing.
• Do not put hot food in the freezer compartment.
• Do not place fresh unfrozen food directly next to already frozen food.
• Do not eat ice cubes, water ices or ice lollies immediately after taking them out of the freezer to avoid frostbites.
• Do not re-freeze defrosted food.

5.3 Hints for storage of frozen food

Freezer compartment is marked with

Good temperature setting that ensures preservation of frozen food products is a temperature less than or equal to -18^
- Higher temperature setting inside the appliance may lead to shorter shelf life.
- The whole freezer compartment is suitable for storage of frozen food products.
- Leave enough space around the food to allow air to circulate freely.
