- ■ If the freezer compartment door cannot be immediately re-opened after it has been closed, wait until the resulting low pressure has equalised.
- ■ The refrigeration system may cause several areas of the freezer shelves to frost quickly. This does not affect function or power consumption. The appliance does not require defrosting until the entire surface of the freezer shelf is covered with ...

- 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.
- ■ The arrangement of the fittings does not affect the energy rating of the appliance.
