Turning the refrigerator control will change temperatures in
both compartments. For example, if the refrigerator control is
turned to a colder setting, the freezer control may have to be
adjusted to a warmer setting. Turning the freezer control will
change only the freezer temperature.
To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates air in the refrigerator
and freezer compartments. For good circulation, do not block
cold air vents with food items.

components. To turn off ppwer to your refrigerator you
