Install the refrigerator in the coolesl
part of the room, out of direct sunlight
and away from heating ducts or
registers, Do not place the
refrigerator next to heat-producing
appliances such as a range, oven
or dish washer, If this is not possible, a
section of cabinetry or an added layer of
insulation between the two appliances will help the
refrigerator operate more efficiently,
Level the refrigerator so the doors close tightly.
Refer to this Owner's Guide for the suggested
refrigerator settings,
Periodic cleaning of the condenser will help the
refrigerator run more efficiently, See "Outside" in the
Care and Cleaning section.
Do not overcrowd the refrigerator or block cold air
vents. Doing so causes the refrigerator to run longer
and use more energy Shelves should not be lined with
aluminum foil, wax paper or paper toweling, Liners
interfere with cold air circulation, making the refrigerator
less efficient, which could cause food spoilage,
Cover foods and wipe containers dry before placing
them in the refrigerator,, This cuts down on moisture
build-up inside the unit.
Organize the refrigerator to reduce door openings,
Remove as many items as needed at one time and
close the door as soon as possible.

cooling stops in both compartments.
