ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION
In order to ensure proper temperatures, air MUST flow
between the refrigerator and freezer sections.
• Cool air enters the freezer through the vents located
at the top of the compartment and exits through the
vents located behind the freezer drawers.
• Cool air from the freezer section enters the fresh food
section through vents located at the top of the
compartment. The air moves down throughout the
compartment and exits through the vents located
behind the crisper drawers.
•
Do not block any of these vents
with food packages.
If the vents are blocked, airflow will be interrupted and
temperature and moisture problems may occur.
IMPORTANT:
Because air circulates between both sections, any odors
formed in one section will transfer to the other. You
MUST thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors.
To prevent odor transfer and dried out food, wrap or
cover foods tightly. (See the
Food Storage Guide
section for details.)
NOTE:
If you close the
refrigerator door, you may see
the freezer door open and
close again due to pressure
from internal air flow.
PRIOR TO USE
1.
Clean your refrigerator thoroughly and wipe off dust
accumulated during shipping.
2.
Install accessories such as ice cube bin, drawers,
shelves, etc., in their proper places. They are packed
together to prevent possible damage during shipment.
3.
Let your refrigerator run for at least 2 or 3 hours
before putting food in it. Check the flow of cold air in
the freezer compartment to ensure proper cooling.
Your refrigerator is now ready for use.
