Energy Saving Ideas
•
Locate the freezer in the coolest part of the room,
out of direct sunlight, and away from heating ducts
or registers.
Do not place the freezer next to
heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven,
or dishwasher.
If this is not possible, a section of
cabinetry or an added layer of insulation between
the two appliances will help the freezer operate
more efficiently.
•
Level freezer so that the door closes tightly.
•
Refer to the “SETTING THE TEMPERATURE
CONTROL” section for the suggested temperature
control settings.
•
Do not overcrowd the freezer or block cold air
vents.
Doing so causes the freezer to run longer
and use more energy.
•
Cover foods and wipe containers dry before
placing them in the freezer.
This cuts down on
moisture build-up inside the unit.
•
Organize the freezer to reduce door openings.
Remove as many items as needed at one time
and close the door as soon as possible.
