The Power Saving Control on the Control Con-
sole operates electric heaters around the door
openings. These heaters help keep moisture from
forming on the outside of the refrigerator.
1. Use the "CONSUMES LESS ENERGY" setting when
humidity is low.
2. Use the "REDUCES EXTERIOR MOISTURE" setting if
moisture forms on the outside of the refrigerator.
