l
On hot days, or if the room is warm, the molor naturally runs
longer.
l
If the door has been opened frequently, or a large amount of food
has been put in at one time, the motor will runs longer to cool
down the interior.
Remember:
Motor running time depends on different things: number of door openings, amount of food stored,
temperature
of the room, setting of controls, etc.
'four
new refrigerator may be larger than your old one so it has more space to be cooled. It also has
a regular freezer instead of a frozen food compartment.
All this means better refrigeration
and may
require more running time than your old one.

service

servicers.
