Energy Saving Tips

• The refrigerater should be located in the coolest area of the room, away from
heat-producing appliances or heating ducts, and out of direct sunlight.
• Let hot foods cool to room temperature before placing in the refrigerator.
Overloading the refrigerator forces to run longer and thus increases energy
consumption. Foods that refrigerate too slowly may lose quality or spoil.
• Be sure to wrap foods properly, and wipe containers dry before placing in the
refrigerator.
• The wire shelves should not be lined with aluminum foil, wax paper, or paper
towels. Liners interfere with cold air circulation, making the refrigerator less
efficient.
• Organize food to reduce door openings and extended searches. Remove as
many items as needed at one time, and close the door as soon as possible.

Water Collection Pan

The water collection pan is located in the rear of unit; to collect moisture build
up from condensation inside of the refrigerator. The amount of water is usually
minimal and will evaporate naturally. Should there be too much water, simply
remove the pan and pour out.
