Helpful hints and tips
Hints for energy saving
• Do not open the door frequently or leave it open longer
than absolutely necessary.
• If the ambient temperature is high and the Temperature
Regulator is set to low temperature and the appliance
is fully loaded, the compressor may run continuously,
causing frost or ice on the evaporator. If this happens,
set the Temperature Regulator toward warmer settings
to allow automatic defrosting and so a saving in elec-
tricity consumption.
Hints for fresh food refrigeration
To obtain the best performance:
• do not store warm food or evaporating liquids in the
refrigerator
• do cover or wrap the food, particularly if it has a strong
flavour
• position food so that air can circulate freely around it

Fruit and vegetables: these should be thoroughly cleaned

Butter and cheese: these should be placed in special air-
tight containers or wrapped in aluminium foil or polythene

Bananas, potatoes, onions and garlic, if not packed, must
