If the motor seems to run too much:
l
Is the condenser, behind the refrigerator, free of dust
and lint’
l
On hot days, or ‘f the room IS warm, the motor natu
rally runs longer
l
If the door has been opened a lot, or if a large
amount of fooa has been put in, the motor will run
longer to cool down the interior.
Remember:
Motor running time depends on drf-
ferent things number of door openings, amount of
food stored. temperature of the room, settrng of the
controls
And, your new refrigerator may be larger than
your old one so I? has more space to be cooled It
also has a regular freezer Instead of a frozen food
compartment All thts means better refrigeration and
may require more running trme than your old one.
