- Install the Appliance Correctly
This means that the appliance should be installed away
from heat sources or direct sunlight in a well ventilated room.
- Correct temperature settings
Set the refrigerator temperature to one of the middle settings.
Very cold temperature settings will not only consume a great
deal of energy but will neither improve nor lengthen the storage
life of the food. Excessively cold temperatures may ruin
vegetables and cheese.
- Do not Overfill
Remember that proper storage of food requires good air
circulation. Overfilling your appliance will hamper proper air
circulation and overwork the compressor.
- Keep the Door Closed
Open your doors only when necessary, remember that every
time you open the door most of the cold air will be lost. To
bring bring the temperature back to the proper level, the motor
must run for a considerable amount of time, consuming a
substantial amount of energy.
- Check the Door Seals
Keep the seals clean and make sure that they fit tightly against
the door. This alone will ensure that no cold air escapes.
- No Hot Foods
A container of hot food in the refrigerator will increase the
temperature significantly, allow food to cool to room temperature
before storing.
- Check you appliance for build up of ice
Check the thickness of the frost on the walls of the freezer
and immediately defrost it if the layer becomes too thick. (see
CARING FOR YOUR APPLIANCE).
