This turns off the unit in your refrigerator that prevents moisture from forming on the inside or outside surfaces.
With this unit turned off, moisture may form on the inside or outside of your refrigerator, especially when the weather is humid. The humidity is most likely to be high in the summer, in the early morning hours, and in homes which are not air conditioned.
Over an extended period of time, moisture that forms on the refrigerator surface may cause deterioration of the paint finish. It will be important to protect the finish by using appliance polish wax as described in the Care & Cleaning section.
The cost to operate the low-wattage unit is about the same as it costs to use two night lights.
When you move the anti-moisture switch to the right, low wattage electricity flows through the unit and warms the outside of the refrigerator and the top of the fresh food section. Under most conditions, this prevents the forming of moisture or water droplets.
It is not necessary to defrost the frozen food storage compartment or fresh food compartments. Although your refrigerator is designed and equipped to defrost itself automatically, some frost on packages is normal.
How to Test Temperatures
Use the milk test for the fresh food compartment. Place a container of milk on the top shelf in the fresh food compartment.
Check it a day later. If the milk is too warm or too cold, adjust the temperature controls.
Use the ice cream test for the frozen food storage compartment.
Place a container of ice cream in the center of the frozen food storage compartment. Check it after a day. If its too hard or too soft, adjust the temperature controls.
After changing the controls, always allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the temperature you have set.
