- Avoid placing the refrigerator in direct sunlight or next to heat sources such as ovens and stoves to reduce energy consumption.
- Ensure that the refrigerator door seals are not leaking by regularly cleaning and checking the door gaskets.
- Keep the refrigerator organized and do not overload it; blocking the vents can reduce cooling efficiency.
