appliance bulb.

Refrigerator

the top of the refrigerator compartment,

on either side of the Dual CoolTM control

housing.

> Carefully grasp the lightbulb by reach-

ing behind the bulb cover.

> Unscrew the light bulb and replace.

Freezer

The freezer light (select models) is locat-

ed on the back wall, near the upper right

corner.

Grasp the top and bottom of the bulb

cover. Press in the areas of the attach-

ment tabs, applying enough pressure

into the appropriate slots.

NO CLEANTM

COMMERCIAL-DUTY

CONDENSER

A clean condenser means more efficient

refrigerator operation. Thanks to the

unique design of the No CleanTM con-

denser there is no longer a need for rou-

tine condenser cleaning in normal home

usage surroundings.

Some operating environments may be

particularly dusty or greasy.In these situ-

ations, the condenser can be periodically

cleaned to insure maximum efficiency.

Locate the refrigerator away from heat

producing appliances such as the

range or dishwasher, heat vents and

direct sunlight.

Level the refrigerator and do not block

ventilation around the front grille.

Keep the freezer full to near capacity

so less cold air will escape during door

openings. When the freezer is less

than two-thirds full, place milk cartons

half full of water in the freezer.

Let hot dishes cool slightly before put-

ting into the refrigerator or freezer.

Cover liquids.

Wipe moisture from the outside of

containers before placing them into

the refrigerator.

Avoid opening the doors too often.
