necessary as too frequent openings of the lid
cause temperature rises in the freezer,
excessive formation of frost and consequently
higher energy consumption.

when it is 3 to 5 mm thick.

fresh foods, make sure they are cooled to
ambient temperature (except for the soup).

not forget turn it towards min (1) if intensive
cooling is no more necessary.

substantially higher. To restore efficiency,
replace the gasket.

always clean, free of dust or any impurities.
