PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a refrigerator in which a refrigeration compartment and a freezing compartment are cooled efficiently with an appropriate quantity of refrigerant while keeping balance of refrigerant storing in an R evaporator and an F evaporator. SOLUTION: A compressor 15, a condenser 21 and a changeover valve 22 are coupled sequentially. An R evaporator 10 and an F evaporator 12 are coupled in parallel with the changeover valve 22 through throttle mechanisms 23 and 24, respectively. The evaporators 10 and 12 are provided, respectively, with a refrigeration compartment fan 11 and a freezing compartment fan 13. A refrigeration mode for cooling the refrigeration compartment and a freezing mode for cooling the freezing compartment are performed alternately and a freezing mode starting operation for starting operation from the freezing mode is performed after the temperatures in the refrigeration compartment and the freezing compartment drop below set levels and the compressor 15 is stopped or after defrost operation.
