Ecological hints

To save energy and help protect the environment, we

recommend that you follow these hints.

a boiler or radiator.
Locate the appliance in a well-ventilated room and make

sure that any air openings of the appliance are not

obstructed.

the freezer compartment.
Food, which is to be frozen (when cool), should be placed in

the fridge compartment before being transferred to the

freezer.
try to avoid keeping the door open for long periods or

opening the door too frequently as warm air will enter the

cabinet and cause the compressor to switch on

unnecessarily often.
Ensure there are no obstructions preventing the door from

closing properly.

A cut off plug inserted into a 13-amp socket is a serious
safety (shock) hazard. Please ensure the cut off plug is
disposed of safely.
