Tips on Saving Energy
- Install it well
And therefore far from heat sources, from direct sunlight, in
a well aired place and according to the distances indicated
in the section on "Installation/Aeration".
- Just the right cold
Too cold a compartment increases energy consumption.
- Do not Overfill
To conserve food properly, the cold air must circulate freely
within the refrigerator. If it is overfilled, this will prevent proper
air circulation, forcing the compressor to work continuously.
- Close the Doors
Open your refrigerator as little as possible because each time
you do so you loose much of the cold air. To raise the tem-
perature to the proper level again, the motor must work for
a long time, consuming energy.
- Keep an Eye on the Seals
Keep the seals clean and make sure that they adhere well to
the door. This alone will ensure that no cold air escapes.
- No Hot Foods
A hot pot or pan placed in the refrigerator immediately raises
the temperature several degrees. Let hot cookware and food
cool to ambient temperature before placing them in the re-
frigerator.
Alarm buzzers and visual warnings
Door open alarm
If the refrigerator door is left open for more than two
minutes, a buzzer will sound. The buzzer will stop sounding
when you shut the door.
Abnormal freezer heating alarm
1. To signal an excessive heating on the part of the freezer,
a buzzer will sound and the two yellow indicator lights
"C" and "E" will start flashing to indicate a dangerous
state of overheating. To prevent food from refreezing,
the freezer will try to maintain a temperature of 0°C,
thus allowing you to use up the food within 24 hour or to
refreeze it after cooking it. Using the special alarm
silencing procedure (open and shut the refrigerator door),
you can turn off the buzzer. To go back to normal
operating conditions, set the freezer knob "B" to position
" " (refrigerator off) and then turn the appliance back
on.
2. If the temperature inside the freezer continues to rise to
excessively high values, the buzzer will sound yet again
and the two yellow indicator lights "C" and "E" together
with the green one "D" will start flashing to indicate an
excessive heating. We recommend you check the
conditions of the food, as it may be necessary to throw it
away. Using the special alarm silencing procedure (open
and shut the refrigerator door), you can turn off the
buzzer. To go back to normal operating conditions, set
the freezer knob "B" to position " " (refrigerator off)
and then turn the appliance back on.
