1. Why does the refrigerator have 2 temperature adjustment buttons?
Refrigerators typically come equipped with 2 temperature adjustment buttons for different compartments: the freezer and the fridge. Knowing how to use them correctly can lead to significant electricity savings.
Refrigerators usually have 2 temperature control buttons for the freezer and fridge compartments respectively. Understanding their correct usage can result in considerable energy savings.
Cooling System Power Adjustment Button
Although both buttons serve the purpose of adjusting the temperature of the two compartments, the operating principles of each button are entirely different. First, let's consider the button placed in the fridge compartment.
In the example shown in the image above, the control knob at the freezer compartment can be toggled to distribute cold air differently. Sliding it to the left directs more cold air into the fridge section, while sliding it to the right prioritizes cooling the freezer. Understanding the operation principle of these two control knobs is crucial. For instance, if you seldom use the freezer and mainly focus on storing food in the fridge section, simply adjusting the knob to direct more cold air downwards can suffice without the need to increase the fridge's power consumption unnecessarily by adjusting the control below the fridge compartment.
