Wait for the refrigerator to cool.
Allow the refrigerator to run for at least two to three hours before putting
food in it. Check the flow of cold air in the freezer compartment to ensure
proper cooling.
Storage of too much food after initial connection to power may adversely
affect the freezing effect of the refrigerator.
•
Putting food in the refrigerator before it has cooled could cause
the food to spoil, or a bad odor to remain inside the refrigerator.
•
The refrigerator makes a loud noise after initial operation.
This is normal. The volume will decrease as the temperature decreases.
ENERGY SAVING TIPS
•
The appliance should be located in the coolest area of the room, away
from heat producing appliances or heating ducts and out of direct
sunlight.
•
Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the appliance.
Overloading forces the compressor to run longer. Foods that freeze too
slowly may lose quality or spoil.
•
Be sure to wrap foods properly and wipe containers dry before placing
them in the appliance. This cuts down on frost build-up inside the fridge.
•
Appliance storage bin should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper
or paper towels. Liners interfere with cold air circulation making the
appliance less efficient.
•
Organize and label food to reduce door opening and extended searches.
Remove as many items needed at one time and close the door as soon as
possible.
