TEMPERATURECONTROLS

Your refrigerator has two controls that let
you regulate the temperature in the Fresh
Food and Freezer compartment (Fig. 6).

POWERCONSUMPTION

The kilowatt hours per month (Kwh/Mo.)
shown on the fact tag attached to the
inner door is the measure of the power
consumed when tested inaccordance with
AHAM Standard HRF-2ECFT with power
artverswitch at the normal setting and at
the setting recommended when moisture
formson refrigerator exterior.

The approximate monthly cost of opera-

tion can be calculated by multiplyingthe

Kwh/Mo. by the cost per kilowatt hour

from your local power company. Cost of
operation varies under actual usage
conditions.

POWERSAVERSWITCH

Yourrefrigerator ia equipped with a power
zaverawitchlocated on the leftside of the
refrigerator near the top of the fresh food
compartment (Fig.7). This switcb allows
you to turn heaters on to eliminate mois­ture on the exterior, if and when it forms.

After adjusting the temperature controls,
allow24hoursfor temperatures to stabilize.

Note: Turning the numbered control to
“OFF” turns off refrigeration in both the
Fresh Food and Freezer compartments.

GuideTo ProperTemperatures:
If a container of milk is too warm or too
cold to your taste after being on the top
shelf in the Fresh Food compartment for
a day, adjust the Cold Control Dials ac­cordingly.

If a gallon ofice cream remains firm to the

touch after being in the Freezer for a day,
the Cold Control Dials are at the proper

setting. If the ice cream’s firmness is not

to your liking, adjust the dials accordingly.
Check a day after resetting either dial to

makesure newsetting is providing the tem­perature you desire.

To freeze a quick supply of ice cubes ora
largeamountof food, advance the lettered

Cold Control Dial to “E;’ but be sure to
reset the dial to its previous setting within
a day.

This moisture can be expected only when

the weather ishumid and ifyour kitchen is
not air conditioned. The switch should be
lefton the “normal” position to save power
except when moisture doeaform. Remem-

ber to switch it back to normal when the

weather is no longer humid.

POWER-SAVINGTIPS

. Don’t open doors more often than neces­sary and close them as soon as possible,
particularly in hot, humid weather.

. Store only foods requiring refrigeration
in your refrigerator.

● Wipe all moisture from bottles and car-

tons before putting them into refrigera-

tor, and keep all foods covered to reduce

moisture build-up inside.

● Don’t waste ice cubes by letting many

melt while using a few.

● If you turn control to coIdestposition for

quick chilling or freezing, don’t forget to
turn it back to normal setting.

. Don’tovercrowri yourrefrigerator— over­crowding can require extra electrical ener-

gy to keep everything cool.
. Before leaving the house or retiring for

the night, check to be sure doors haven’t
been left ajar inadvertently,

. Don’t Iocate your refrigerator adjacent
to your range, aheating vent or where sun-

shine will strike it if any other kitchen ar-

rangement is possible.
