The following suggestions will minimize the
cost of operating your refrigeration appliance.
1. Do not install your appliance next to a hot appliance,
(cooker, dishwasher, 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
is 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 open-
ings for the next 12 hours to allow contents to pull down
to compartment set-point temperature.
6. Maintaining a relatively full storage compartment will
require less appliance run time than an empty compart-
ment.
7. Assure door closing is not obstructed by contents
stored in your appliance.
8. Allow hot items to reach room temperature before plac-
ing in product.
9. Minimize door openings and duration of door openings.
10. Use the warmest temperature control set-point that
meets your personal preference and provides the
proper storage for your stored contents.
11. For wine storage products:
When serving temperatures are not required, re-
turn the compartment(s) set-point to the ideal red
and white wine long term storage temperature of
13°C / 55°F.
12. Minimize use of display lighting option on glass door
products, (light stays on with door closed).
13. When on vacation or away from home for extended pe-
riods, set the appliance to warmest acceptable tem
perature for the stored contents.
14. Set the control to the “off” position if cleaning the unit
requires the door to be open for an extended period of
time.
