Energy Saving Tips

• There are many things you can do to reduce your mini fridge’s energy consumption.
• Using these tips will make the appliance more efficient and lessen the burden on the compressor and other mechanical parts.
• Place your mini fridge in the coolest area of the room.
• Ensure that it is out of direct sunlight and away from any heat-producing appliances, vents, or surfaces.

• Always ensure that space exists for air to circulate the items you place in your mini fridge.
• Do not use your mini fridge to store damp food/containers. Wrap food properly and wipe any containers dry before storing. Failure to do so may result in frost buildup inside the mini-fridge.
• Never line the inside of the mini fridge with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper towels. Doing so does not insulate the appliance and only serves to interfere with air circulation and reduce your mini fridge’s efficiency.
• Do not leave the door open any longer than is necessary.
• Do not allow food to touch the rear of the mini fridge’s storage area.
• While your mini fridge is capable of cooling to freezing temperatures, we recommend that you do not set the thermostat to exceedingly low temperatures.
• Doing so will force your mini fridge to work harder than it might otherwise need to.

MAINTENANCE

• WARNING! Force should never be applied to the door, compressor, or other parts of the appliance.

Internal Cleaning

• Do not pour water over your mini fridge or immerse it in any way.
• The refrigeration area can be cleaned with a soft cloth, mild soap, and lukewarm water.
