The MS24RFS2 is a 5.8 cubic foot combination refrigerator-freezer that is appropriate for non-critical temperature storage applications. This unit uses a U-shaped plate-type evaporator installed across the top of the interior, which is isolated from the remainder of the interior space by a spring-closing interior door and thermal divider, to create a small amount of dedicated freezer space. The remainder of the interior is refrigerator storage space. The MS24RFS2 has an adjustable knob-type electronic thermostat that is recessed into the toe space grill beneath the exterior door. It features a manual defrost system to eliminate temperature excursions and dehydration of contents that can occur in refrigerator-freezers with heat assisted automatic defrost systems.
