Performance Air Flow System
The Performance Air-Flow System is designed to maximize tempera-
ture control in the refrigerator and freezer compartments. This unique
special feature consists of the Air Tower along the back wall of the
refrigerator and the Air Tunnel on the bottom portion of the freezer
rear wall. Placing food in front of the louvers on these components
will not affect performance. Although the Air Tower and the Air Tun-
nel can be removed, doing so will affect temperature performance.
