Energy Saving Ideas
o Installthe refrigerator in the most cool part of the room, out of direct sunlight and
away from heating ducts or registers, Do not place the refrigerator next to heat-
producing appliances such asa range, oven or dishwasher, Ifthis is not possible,
a section of cabinetry or an added layerof insulation between the two appliances
will help the refrigerator operate more efficiently,
, Levelthe refrigerator so the doors closetightly,
o Refer to this Owner's Guide for the suggested refrigerator settings,
o Periodk:cleaning of the condenser will help the refrigerator run more efficiently,
See Outside in the "Care and Cleaning" section.
• Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air vents, Doing so causes the
refrigerator to run longer and use more energy, Shelvesshould not be lined with
aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling, Liners interfere with cold air
circulation, making the refrigerator lessefficient, which could causefood spoilage,
o Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the refrigerator, This
cuts down or] moisture build-up inside the unit,
• Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings, Remove as many items as
needed at one time and close the door assoon as possible,

To ensure safe food storage, allow the refrigerator to operate with the doors closed
for at least 8 to 12 hours before loading with food.
Refrigerator Control
• The refrigerator control should be set at the midpoint of the dial for atrial period
of 24 hours.
o After 24 hours, adjust the control asneeded, Forcolder temperatures, turn the dial
a notch toward COLDEST, Forwarmer temperatures, turn the diala notch toward
COLD, Adjust temperatures by one increment at a time,
Freezer Control
o The freezer control should be set at the midpoint of the dial for atrial period of
24 hours.
o After 24 hours, adjust the control asneeded, Forcolder temperatures, turn the dial
a notch toward COLDEST, Forwarmer temperatures, turn the diala notch toward
COLD, Adjust temperatures by one increment at a time,
NOTE: When first setting the controls orwhen changing asetting, wait 24 hours for
the temperature to stabilize before making additional changes,
Turning the freezer control may change temperatures in both compartments, For
example, if the freezer control isturned to acolder setting, the refrigerator control
may have to be adjusted to a warmer one, Turning the refrigerator control will
change only the refrigerator temperature,
IMPORTANT: If the freezer control is turned to OFF, cooling stops in both
compartments.
You may hear the "Frost Free" system working, A fan circulates air in the refrigerator
and freezer compartments. Forgood circulation and maintenance of proper cooling
temperatures, do not block cold air vents with food items, Water draining into the
defrost water pan and hissing sounds are normal during the automatic "Frost Free"
cycle,
