6. Use appliance bulbs only
if the motor seem to run too long:
l

dust and lint?
. On hot days, or If the room
IS
warm, the motor natu-
rally runs longer

Remember: Motor running time depends on d/f-
ferent things number of door openings, amount of
food stored, ter,lperature of the room, setting of the
controls
And, your new refrigerator may be larger than
your old one so it has more space to be cooled. It
also has a regular freezer Instead of a frozen food
compartment. All this means better refrigeration and
may require more running time than your old one
