To protect your frozen food suppiy, ieave your /ettereo’ setting at this coider setting for the entire winter or for whatever period of time you are turning down your thermostat. This is especially important when the thermostat is turned down for an extended period.

This change shouid have no effect on your fresh food section, However, if freezing occurs, turn the numbered controi one step warmer, as from “5”to ‘;4.”

When you stop turning the thermo- stat down, turn temperature controis back to their reguiar settings.

The Energy Saver Switch is located on the temperature controi panei.

When the Energy Saver SwM% k pushedtu3the right,electricity fiows through the iow wattage heaters which warm the outside of the cab- inet and, under most conditions, prevent the forming of moisture or water dropiets.

it is not necessary to defrost the freezer or fresh food compartments. Your refrigerator is designed and equipped to defrost itseif automatically.
