How to Save Energy

Be sure to follow location suggestions as men-
tioned in the previous INSTALLATION section.
Wipe moisture from glassware or other materials
before placing them in a unit.
Don't overcrowd the unit. Too many items can
increase electrical energy demand in order to
keep everything cool.
Close the door as soon as possible in hot,
humid weather.
Make certain that the door is closed tightly.
As soon as frost has accumulated to 1/4",
defrost.
Keep containers covered, when possible, to
reduce moisture buildup.
Set operating temperature no colder than neces-
sary for the items being refrigerated.

Safety Tips

After a unit is in operation, do not touch the cold
surfaces, particularly when hands are damp.
Skin may adhere to the extremely cold surfaces.
Never disconnect your unit by pulling on the
power cord. Always grip the plug securely and
pull straight out from the outlet.
Do not use a power cord that shows cracks or
abrasions. Have a qualified electrician repair or
replace damaged cords immediately.
