How to test temperatures
Use the milk test for the fresh
food compartment. Place a
container of milk on the top shelf
in the fresh food compartment.
Check it a day later. If the milk is
too warm or too cold, adjust the
temperature controls.
Use the ice cream test for the
freezer compartment. P1acea
container of ice cream in the center
of the freezer compartment. Check
it after a day. If it's too hard or too
soft, adjust the temperaturecontrols.
Always allow 24 hours for the
refrigerator to reach the
temperature you set.

you may want to move the
freezer control one step colder.
Cooler temperatures in the house
may cause the compressor to
operate less frequently, thus
allowing the freezer compartment
to warm somewhat. To protect
your frozen food supply, leave the
freezer setting at this colder setting
for the entire winter or for as long
as you keep yoLIrthermostat

Power saver

to their
The power saver switch is located
on the temperature control panel.
To reduce the amount of
electricity required to operate
your refrigerator,push switch to
the POWER SAVERsetting.
This turns off the heater in your
refrigerator that prevents moisture
from forming on the cabinet
surface between the doors.
With the heater turned off, there is
a chance that moisture may form
on the outside of your refrigerator,
especially when the weather is
humid. The humidity is most likely
to be high in the summer, in the
early morning hours, and in homes
which are not air conditioned.
Over an extended period of time,
moisture that forms on the cabinet
surface may cause deterioration of
the paint finish. It will be important
to protect the finish by using
appliance polish wax as described
on page 13.
Move the power saver switch
from the POWER SAVER
setting and electricity flows
through the low wattage heater
which warms the cabinet surface
between the doors. Under most
conditions, this prevents the
forming of moisture or water
droplets.
No defrosting
It is not necessary to defrost the
freezer or fresh food compartments.
Although your refrigerator is
designed and equipped to defrost
itself automatically, some frost on
packages is normal.
