cover. In the event of losing
the fuse cover the plug
must not be used until a

Energy Saving Tips
1. Ensure your appliance
is installed in a well
ventilated area.
2. Ensure the time between

food and placing them
in your appliance is
kept at minimum,
particularly in summer.
We recommend you use
a cool bag or a special
carrier bag to carry
perishable food.
3. Do not leave the door (s)
of your appliance open
longer than necessary
and ensure they are
closed properly after
each opening.
4.Defrost frozen food in
the fridge, so that frozen
food acts as an ice pack
to assist cooling in fridge.
