Modern refrigerators with more storage space require more
operating time.
The compressor will run longer under warm conditions. At
normal room temperatures, expect your motor to run about
40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer conditions, expect
it to run even more often. This model is still more energy
efficient than previous models.
Adding food and opening the door warms the refrigerator.
It is normal for the refrigerator to run longer in order to cool
the refrigerator back down. Adding a large amount of food
warms the refrigerator. In order to conserve energy, try to
get everything you need out of the refrigerator at once, keep
food organized so it is easy to find, and close the door as
soon as the food is removed. (See the Food Storage Guide.)
The refrigerator wiii take up to 24 hours to cool completely.
