4.1 What to do for
energy saving
A
Connecting the product
to electric energy saving
systems is risky as it may
cause damage on the
product.
Do not keep the refrigerator
doors open for long periods.
Do not place hot food or
beverages into the refrigerator.
Do not overfill the refrigerator;
blocking the internal air flow
will reduce cooling capacity.
The energy consumption value
specified for the refrigerator
was measured with the freezer
compartment’s upper shelf
removed, other shelves and
the lowest drawers in place
and under maximum load. The
top glass shelf can be used,
depending on the shape and
size of food to be frozen.
Depending on the product’s
features; defrosting frozen foods
in the cooler compartment
will ensure energy saving and
preserve food quality.
The baskets/drawers that
are provided with the chill
compartment must always be in
use for low energy consumption
and for better storage
conditions.
Food contact with the
temperature sensor in the
freezer compartment may
increase energy consumption of
the appliance. Thus any contact
with the sensor(s) must be
avoided.
Make sure the foods are not
in contact with the cooler
compartment temperature
sensor described below.
4.2 First Use
Before using your refrigerator,
make sure the necessary
preparations are made in line with
the instructions in “Safety and
environment instructions” and
“Installation” sections.
Keep the product running with
no food inside for 6 and do not
open the door, unless absolutely
necessary.
C
A sound will be heard
when the compressor is
engaged. It is normal to
hear sound even when the
compressor is inactive,
due to the compressed
liquids and gasses in the
cooling system.
