Tips for saving
energy
S Install the appliance in a cool, well
ventilated room, but not in direct
sunlight and not near a heat source
(radiator, cooker, etc.). If required,
use an insulating plate.
S Allow warm food and drinks to cool
down before placing in the appliance!
S When thawing frozen food, place it
in the refrigerator compartment.
The low temperature of the frozen
products cools the food in the
refrigerator.

possible.
