REFRIGERATOR USE
Ensur+ng Proper Circulation
In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit air to
flow between the two sections. Cotd air enters the bottom of the
freezer section and moves up. It then enters the refrigerator
section through the top vent. Air then returns to the freezer as
shown.
Do not block any of these vents with food such as soda, cereal,
bread, etc. If the vents are blocked, airflow witt be prevented and
the temperature controls wilt not function properly.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any
odors formed in one section witl transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent
odor transfer from food, wrap or cover foods tightiy.
Your model may have Rotary Controls or Stide Controls

The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer
compartment temperature. Higher numbered settings make
the compartment colder. Lower numbered settings make the
temperature tess cold.
Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If you
add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your
food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer Controis to a
higher (colder) setting wilt not coot the compartments any
faster.
The preset settings shouid be correct for normal household
usage. The controts are set correctly when mitk or juice is as
