Appliance
seems to run
continuously.
• Today's refrigerators are
designed with a variable
speed compressor to be
more energy ecient
than previous models.
This means your com-
pressor reacts quickly to
temperature fluctua-
tions and circulates cold
air based o your use
and room temperature.
• This is normal for a variable speed
compressor refrigerator; however,
if you have concerns, call 1-800-
374-4432 (United States) Frigidaire.
com or 1-800-265-8352 (Canada)
