Changing the light
• Any replacement or maintenance of the LED lamps is intended to be made by
the manufacturer, its service agent or similar qualified person.
Connecting the appliance
After installing the appliance, connect the power plug into a socket outlet.
ATTENTION
• After connecting the power supply cord (or plug) to the outlet, wait 2 or 3 hours before you
put food into the appliance. If you add food before the appliance has cooled completely,
your food may spoil.
Precautions before operation:
• Before making changes the refrigerator must be disconnected from power.
• precautions should be taken to prevent any personal injury.
Tips for energy saving
• Do not place the appliance near cookers, radiators or other heat sources. If the
ambient temperature is high, the compressor will run more frequently and for longer,
resulting in increased energy consumption.
• Ensure that there is sufficient ventilation at the base of the appliance, on the sides of
the appliance and at the back of the appliance. Never cover ventilation openings.
• Please also observe the spacing dimensions in the chapter “ Installation ” .
• The arrangement of drawers, shelves and racks as shown in the illustration offers the
most efficient use of energy and should therefore be retained as far as possible. All
drawers and shelves should remain in the appliance to keep the temperature stable
and save energy.
• To obtain a larger storage space (e.g. for large refrigerated/frozen goods), the
middle drawers can be removed. The top and bottom drawers and shelves should be
removed last if necessary.
• An evenly filled refrigerator/freezer compartment contributes to optimal energy use.
Therefore, avoid empty or half-empty compartments.
• Allow warm food to cool before placing it in the refrigerator/freezer. Food that has
already cooled down increases energy efficiency.
• Allow frozen food to defrost in the refrigerator. The coldness of the frozen food
reduces the energy consumption in the refrigerator compartment and thus increases
the energy efficiency.
• Open the door only as briefly as necessary to minimise cold loss. Opening the door
briefly and closing it properly reduces energy consumption.
• The door seals of your appliance must be perfectly intact so that the doors close
properly and energy consumption is not increased unnecessarily.
