Reversing the door swing
You can change the hinges on your refrig
erator so the doors open the other way.
Refer to the instruction sheet included with
your refrigerator.
Saving energy
You can help your refrigerator use less
electricity.
• Check door gaskets for a tight seal. Level
the cabinet to be sure of a good seal.
• Clean the condenser coils regularly.
• Open the door as few times as possible.
Think about what you need before you
open the door. Get everything out at one
time. Keep food organized so you won’t
have to search for what you want. Close
door as soon as food is removed.
• Go ahead and fill up the refrigerator, but
don’t overcrowd it so air movement is
blocked.
• It is a waste of electricity to set the refrig
erator and freezer to temperatures colder
than they need to be. If ice cream is firm in
the freezer and drinks are as cold as your
family likes them, that’s cold enough.
• Make sure your refrigerator is not next to a
heat source such as a range, water heater,
furnace, radiator or in direct sunlight.
