. . you may want to turn the lettered
control one step colder, as from "C"
to "D."Cooler temperatures in the
house lmaycause the compressor to
operate less frequently, thus allow-
ing the freezer compartment to
warm somewhat. To protect your
frozen food supply, leave your
lettered
setting at this colder setting
for the entire winter or for whatever
period of time you are turning down
your thermostat. This is e.specialiy
important when the thermostat is
turned down for an extended period.
This change should have no effect
on your fresh food compartment.
However, if freezing occurs, turn
the numbered control one step
warmer, as from "5" to "4:'
When you stop turning the ther-
mostat down, turn temperature
controls back to their regular
settings.
The
Energy Saver Switch is located
on the upper left side of the fresh
food compartment.

With the heaters turned off, there
is a chance that moisture may form
on the outside of your refrigerator,
especially when the weather is
humid. The humidity is most likely
to be high in the summer, in the
early morning hours, and in homes
which are not air conditioned.
Over an extended period of time,
moisture that forms on the outside
may cause deterioration of the paint
finish. It willbe important to protect
the finish by using appliance polish
wax as described on page 11.

the Energy saw' stitch
is
pushed to the right, electricity flows
through the low wattage heaters
which warm the outside of the cabi-
net and, under most conditions,
prevent the forming of moisture
or water droplets.
No defrosting
It is not necessary to defrost
the freezer or fresh food compart-
ments. Your refrigerator is designed
and equipped to defrost itself
automatically.
