Warm Cabinet Surfaces
At times, the frontsurfaces of your refrigeratorcabinet may be warm to the touch. This is a
normalfunctionof your refrigerator. This feature prevents moisturefrom condensing on th_
outside of your refrigerator during humid weather. This condition may be noticeable when"-"
you first start your refrigerator, during hot weather, and during excessive or lengthy door
openings.
Energy Saver Switch
The Energy Saver switch controls a heater designed to prevent moisture accumulation
betweenthe refrigeratorand freezer door frame. Duringhumidweather,moisturecollects on
objects that are cooler than the surrounding air. This condensation can be eliminated by
applying a small amount of heat to the surface upon which the water accumulates.
When the EnergySaver switch is on "SavesEnergy",no heat is applied to the surface. It is
saving both energy and money. If humidity increasesand condensationappears, turn the
EnergySaverswitchto "ReducesExteriorMoisture". Be sure toturn the EnergySaverswitch
back to "Saves Energy" as the humidity drops to save energy.
In areas of relatively high humidity, the Energy Saver Switch in the "Reduces Exterior
Moisture" position will minimize any collection of moisture on the outside surface of
the cabinet.
