I'd think you wouldn't want much air circulation if it's the section not going to be used - why waste the power and the cooling.


In fact, what I might do is fit a piece of styrofoam or I think cardboard might even work, that fits on the topmost shelf and goes all the way to the door (it might be tricky getting a proper fit) so that when the door is closed most of the bottom half of the fridge isn't even cooled at all. What would be the point if you are not using it, then you don't have big blocks of styrofoam to store when you do need it? Just remove any shelves on the door so this styrofoam goes to the door and keeps any cold air confined to a much smaller area. I would also put some baking soda in the lower area just to ensure it absorbs any odors that might form.

Hopefully Ozz will come along with some ideas.
