ENERGY SAVING TIPS
Energy Saving Tips
The following suggestions will minimize the cost of operating
your refrigeration appliance.
1. Do not install your appliance next to a hot appliance, (ovens,
glassware washers, etc.). heating air duct, or other heat
sources.
2. Install product out of direct sunlight.
3. Assure the toe grille vents at front of unit beneath door are
not obstructed and kept clean to allow ventilation for the
refrigeration system to expel heat.
4. Plug your appliance into a dedicated power circuit. (Not
shared with other appliances).
5. When initially loading your new product, or whenever large
quantities of warm contents are placed within refrigerated
storage compartment, minimize door openings for the next
12 hours to allow contents to pull down to compartment
set-point temperature.
6. Maintaining a relatively full storage compartment will re-
quire less appliance run time than an empty compartment.
7. Assure door closing is not obstructed by contents stored in
your appliance.
8. Allow hot items to reach room temperature before placing
in product.
9. Minimize door openings and duration of door openings.
10. Use the warmest temperature control set-point that pro-
vides the proper storage for your stored contents.
11. Set the control to the “off” position if cleaning the unit
requires the door to be open for an extended period of
time.
12. Annually clean condenser heat exchange coil located
in machine compartment underneath unit, (see “Care
and Cleaning” page 12).
