Tips for saving energy

Install the appliance in a dry, well
■
ventilated room! The appliance should
not be installed in direct sunlight
or near a heat source (e.g. radiator,
cooker).
If required, use an insulating plate.
Allow warm food and drinks to cool
■
down before placing in the appliance!
When thawing frozen products, place
■
them in the refrigerator. Use
the coldness of the frozen food
to cool food.
Open the appliance as briefly
■
as possible.
Occasionally clean
■
the rear of the appliance
with a vacuum cleaner or paint brush
to prevent an increased power
consumption.
■
Fit wall spacers to obtain the indicated
energy rating of the appliance (see
Installation instructions). A reduced
wall gap will not restrict the function
of the appliance. The energy rating
may then change slightly. The gap of
75 mm must not be exceeded.
