Rearrange items to allow air to fl ow throughout the

When the doors are opened often or for long periods
of time, warm, humid air enters the compartment.
This raises the temperature and moisture level within
the compartment. To lessen the eff ect, reduce the
frequency and duration of door openings.
The refrigerator should not be operated in
temperatures above 110F.
Adding food warms the compartment requiring the
cooling system to run. Allowing hot food to cool to
room temperature before putting it in the refrigerator

Humid weather allows additional moisture to enter the
compartments when the doors are opened leading to
condensation or frost. Maintaining a reasonable level
of humidity in the home will help to control the amount
of moisture that can enter the compartments.
During the defrost cycle, the temperature of each
compartment may rise slightly and condensation may
form on the back wall. Wait 30 minutes and confi rm
that the proper temperature has been restored once
the defrost cycle has completed.
Food stored uncovered or unwrapped, and damp
containers can lead to moisture accumulation within
each compartment. Wipe all containers dry and store
food in sealed packaging to prevent condensation and
frost.
