you first start the refrigerator, during hot weather and
after excessive or lengthy door openings.

Energy Saver Switch
• Off - The refrigerator uses more energy when this
switch is off, because a heater located in the hinged
seal section of the door is running. This heater helps
prevent condensation formation on the exterior of the
hinged seal. Turn the energy saver switch Off when
the environment is warm and more humid or if
moisture is noticed on the door exterior.
• On - This setting saves energy by not using the
heater. Turn the energy saver switch On when the
environment is less humid.
