Caution
Do not use abrasive, chloride or acidic

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.
Do not block the ventilation openings
■
in the appliance.
The ice packs slow down the thawing
■
process of the frozen food in the event
of a power failure or malfunction.
Place the ice packs directly on the
food in the top compartment.
Open the appliance as briefly as
■
possible!
The briefer the appliance door is
opened, the lower the ice formation on
the freezer shelves.
Thaw frozen food in the refrigerator
■
compartment and use the low
temperature of the frozen food to cool
refrigerated food.
Regularly defrost the freezer
■
compartment to remove the layer
of frost.
A layer of hoarfrost will impair
refrigeration of the frozen food and
increase power consumption.
Occasionally clean the rear of the
■
appliance to prevent an increased
power consumption.
