• Locate the refrigerator in the coolest 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 dishwasher. 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.

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.

Moisture Reduction Switch
(some models)
If moisture forms on the metal between the two doors, set the Moisture
Reduction Switch (located on the control box in the refrigerator compartment) to
the “ON” position. A heater will warm the surface and allow moisture to evapo-
rate.
