Energy Saving Tips

Maximize efficiency and reduce electricity consumption.

Set correct temperature: -18°C is ideal for frozen food storage.
Keep door closed: Minimize frequency and duration of door openings.
Ensure seals are tight: Check door gaskets regularly for leaks.
Defrost regularly: Ice build-up over 5 mm increases energy use.
Place away from heat: Keep freezer in a cool, well-ventilated area.

Note: A full freezer is more efficient than an empty one, but do not overpack.

Care & Cleaning

Unplug before cleaning. Never use abrasive or chemical cleaners.

Exterior: Wipe with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent.
Interior: Defrost and clean with solution of warm water and baking soda.
Door seals: Clean gently with water to maintain elasticity.
Condenser coils: Vacuum dust from rear grille annually (if accessible).
