Unsatisfactory refrigeration also results from improper operation by the user due
to misunderstanding or carelessness. Each refrigerator contains a pamphlet called
“INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE” which should be followed to assure the best refrigeration

A study of the following instructions will help the servicer to better instruct the
user, and will also help him to answer questions which may be asked.
