ENSURING PROPER AiR CiRCULATiON In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown in the illustration below, cool air enters through the bottom of the freezer section and moves up. Most of the air then flows through the freezer section vents and recirculates under the freezer floor. The rest of the air enters the refrigerator section through the top vent. • Do not block any of these vents with food packages. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be interrupted and temperature and moisture problems may occur. iMPORTANT." Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thorougly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer and drying out food, wrap or cover foods tightly. (See the Food Storage Guide section for details.) Note: If you close the refrigerator door forcefully, the freezer door may open and close again due to pressure from internal air flow. NEXT 1.
