Advice from different manufacturers varies considerably. In my Neff fridgeâs instruction book it advises only, âat least half an hourâ, which is surprisingly low. A Smeg fridge freezer instruction book says, âlet it settle for 6 hoursâ.This 6 hour recommendation is increased to 24 hours if it is known that the appliance has been laid down.t the end of the day, the last thing you want is a system blockage. If you had to temporarily tip the appliance over to get it through a door or off a vehicle then you need to let it stand for longer than if it was kept upright constantly. If you know itâs been laid down leave it for 24 hours.
A typical mini refrigerator will take at least four hours to cool down after being plugged in. If time permits, waiting a full 24 hours will ensure that the refrigerator is completely cooled to the temperature to which it has been set. Follow the manufacturer's guidelines regarding clearance, room temperature and settings for the best efficiency.
