IPOWERCONSUMPTION
1
The kilowatt hours per month (Kwh/Mo.)
shown on the fact tag attached to the
inner door is the measure of (he power
consumed when tested in accordance with
AHAM Standard HRF-21.ZCFTwith power
saver switch in the DRY position and in
the HUh41Dposition.
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.
POWER SAVER SWITCH
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),
POWERSAVER
Fig 7
THIS SWITCH SHOULD NORMALLY
BE IKEPTON “DRY” POSHTON.
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-SAV!NGTIPS
o
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.
o Wipe 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.
QDon’t waste ice cubes by letting many
melt while using a few.
QIf you turn control to coldest position for
quick chilling or freezing, don’t forget to
turn it back to normal setting.
~ Don’t overcrowd your refrigerator— over-
crowding can require extra electrical ener-
gy to keep everything cool.
4
0 Before leaving the house or retiring f
the night, check to be sure doors have
been left ajar inadvertently.
~ 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.
