Keep Refrigerator Controls Set Right For Summer

In hot weather set the refrigerator cold control to the right to 40 degrees for all parts except the freezer. Do not exceed 50 degrees anywhere. Use a reliable thermometer after closing the door to check, freeze only what you need, then return to normal. Minimize door openings and avoid crowding to improve cooling efficiency.
