DWERCONSUMPTION

le kilowatt hours per month (Kwh/Mo.)

own on the fact tag attached to the

inner door is the measure of the power consumed when tested in accordance with AHAM Standard HRF’2ECFT with power saver switch in the DRY position and in the HUMID position.

The approximate monthly cost of opera- tion can be calculated by multiplying the Kwh/Mo. by the cost per kilowatt hour from your local power company.

POWERSAWERSWITCH

Your refrigerator is equipped with a power saver switch located on the left side of the refrigerator near the top of the fresh food compartment (Fig, 7).

Fig. 7

THIS SWITCH SHOULD NORMALLY BE KEPT ON “DRY” POMTION.

Most modern refrigerators use electric heaters in certain areas to prevent forma- tion of moisture on exterior surfaces dur- ing humid weather. The power saver switch allows you to activate these heaters should they be needed. If moisture appears on the outside of the refrigerator, wipe it off and move the power saver switch to “HUMID” position. Remember to return the power saver switch to “DRY” when the weather becomes less humid.

The above recommended settings mini- mize power consumption and insure good performance in humid weather.

POWER”SAVING‘n!%

~Don’t open doors more often than neces- sary and close them as soon as possible, particularly in hot, humid weather.

~Store only foods requiring refrigeration in your refrigerator.

IZIWipe all moisture from bottles and car- tons before putting them into the refrigera- tor, and keep all foods covered to reduce moisture build-up inside.

~Don’t waste ice cubes by letting many rnelt while using a few.

QIf you turn control to coldest position for cpick chilling or freezing, don’t forget to turn it back to normal setting.

*Don’t overcrowd your refrigerator- ove crowding can require extra electrical ener4 gy to keep everything cool.

*Before leaving the house or retiring f

the night, check to be sure doors haven’t been left ajar inadvertently.

g Don’t locate your refrigerator adjacent to your range, a heating vent or where sun- shine will strike it if any other kitchen ar- rangement is possible.
