You can help your refrigerator use less electriiity. Check door gaskets for a tight seal. Level l the cabinet to be sure of a good seal. Clean the condenser coils regularly. l Cpen the door as few times as possible. l Think about what you need before you open the door. Get everything out at one time. Keep food organized so you won�t have to search for what you want. Close door as soon as food is removed.

Go ahead and till up the refrigerator, but don�t overcrowd it so air movement is blocked. It is a waste of electricii to set the refrigerator temperature colder than it needs to be. lf ice cream is firm in the freezer and drinks are as cold as your family likes them, that�s wfd enough. Make sure your refrigerator is not next to a heat source such as a range, water heater, furnace, radiator or in direct sunlight.
