Energy saving tips...
You can help your refrigerator
use less electricity
l
Check door gaskets for a tight seal. Level the cabi-
net to be sure of a good seal.
l
Clean the condenser
coil regularly.
l
Open the door as few times as possible. Think about
what you need
before
you open
the door. Get
everything
out at one time. Keep foods organized
so you won't have to search for what you want.
Close door as soon as food is removed.
l
Go ahead and fill up the refrigerator, but don't over-
* It is a waste of electricity
to set the refrigerator
and
freezer to temperatures
colder than they need to
be. If ice cream is firm in the freezer and drinks are
as cold as your family likes them, that's cold enough.
l
Keep the Power Saving Control on CONSUMES LESS
ENERGY unless moisture
forms on refrigerator
exterior
crowd it so air movement
is blocked.
l
Make sure Your refrigerator
is not next to a heat
source such as a range, water heater, furnace, radi-
ator, or in direct sunlight.

and freezer sections defrost
automatically.

about
once a month to help prevent
odors from building
up. Of course. spills should be wiped up right away.

your refrigerator,
turn the Refrigerator
Control
to OFF, unplug

parts,

to the following
directions.
