THIS SWITCH SHOULD NORMALLY
BE KEPT ON "DRY" POMTION.
Most modern refrigerators
use electric
heaters in certain areas to prevent forma-
tion of moisture on exterior surfaces dur-
ing humid weather.
The power saver
switch allows you to activate these heaters
should they be needed. If moisture appears
on the outside of the refrigerator, wipe it
off and move the power saver switch to
"HUMID" position. Remember to return
the power saver switch to "DRY" when the
weather becomes less humid.
The above recommended
settings
mini-
mize power consumption and insure good
performance in humid weather.
