• Locate the appliance in the coolest part of the room, out of direct
sunlight, and away from heating ducts or registers. Do not place the
unit next to heat-producing appliances such as a range, oven, or
dishwasher. If this is not possible, a section of cabinetry or an added
layer of insulation between the two appliances will help the unit
operate more efciently.
• Level appliance so that the door closes tightly.
• Refer to the “SETTING THE TEMPERATURE CONTROL” section for
the suggested temperature control settings.
• Do not overcrowd the unit or block cold air vents. Doing so causes the appliance to run
longer and use more energy.
• Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing them in the appliance. This cuts down
on moisture build-up inside the unit.
• Organize the appliance to reduce door openings. Remove as many items as needed at one
time and close the door as soon as possible.
ENERGY-SAVING TIPS
CARE AND CLEANING
Keep your refrigerator clean to prevent odor build-up. Wipe up any spills immediately and clean
at least twice a year. Never use metallic scouring pads, brushes, abrasive cleaners or strong
alkaline solutions on any surface. Do not wash any removable parts in a dishwasher. Always
unplug the electrical power.
CAUTION
• When moving the refrigerator, pull straight out. Do not shift the refrigerator from
side to side as this may tear or gouge the oor covering.
• Damp objects stick to cold metal surfaces. Do not touch interior metal surfaces
with wet or damp hands.
Vacation and Moving Tips
Short Vacations: Leave the refrigerator operating during vacations of less than 3 weeks.
Long Vacations: If the refrigerator will not be used for several months:
• Remove all food and unplug the power cord.
• Clean and dry the interior thoroughly.
• Leave the refrigerator door open slightly, blocking it open if necessary, to prevent odor and
mold growth.
