 | On Refrigeration - Defrost your refrigerator regularly. Frost acts as an insulating blanket which causes the motor to work
overtime, resulting in more electric energy used. - Check your refrigerator door gaskets for leaks. A worn-out gasket can cause the motor to work longer
to maintain desired temperature. - Place your refrigerator in the coolest side of the room. The best is usually on the northern part, away
from the morning and afternoon sun. - Cool foods to room temperature before storing in refrigerator.
- Don't overcrowd the refrigerator. This interferes with the circulation of air and overworks the
compressor to maintain cold temperature. - Remove store wrappings from foods before putting them in the refrigerator; paper acts as insulation.
- Avoid unnecessary opening of refrigerator.
- Keep cooling fins and coils of refrigerators clean and dust-free.
