To check the cooling unit, first verify the AC heating element is good. Then place approximately one
gallon of water inside the refrigerator and place a thermometer in one of the containers of water.
Supply
115
volts direct to the AC heating element and operate for at least 12 hours. Check the tem-
perature on the thermometer. It should be at 45 degrees or lower depending on test conditions.
FOOD STORAGE
It is essential that the shelves are not covered with paper or large storage containers.
Odorous or highly flavored foods should always be stored in covered dishes, plastic bags or wrapped in
foil or waxed paper to prevent food odors. Vegetables, lettuce, etc., should be covered to retain their
crispness. NEVER PUT HOT FOOD INTO THE REFRIGERATOR.

HIGH HUMIDITY
Condensation may actually run off the frame. As the humidity is reduced, the “sweating” will de-
crease. High humidity can also be a factor in rapid formation of frost.
INTERIOR LINER SEAL TO FRAME
Condensation could form on the frame. Apply a small bead of silicone all the way around the perimeter
where the frame meets the interior liner.
Slide the refrigerator out approximately 2-4 inches. Apply a foil-backed adhesive tape to the joint
between outer frame and foil-backed refrigerator insulation.
Use a clear silicon caulking compound and seal
the seam between the refrigerator’s plastic liner
and the metal frame.
NOTE:
TO FORM A PROPER SEAL, IT IS
IMPORTANT NOT TO LEAVE ANY GAPS.
