Temperature
controls

The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 

37°F

for the 

fresh food compartment and 

0°F

for the freezer compartment. Allow

24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the preset recommended
settings.

The temperature controls can display both the 

SET

temperature 

as well as the actual temperature in the fresh food and freezer
compartments. The actual temperature may vary slightly from the

SET

temperature based on usage and operating environment.

Setting either or both controls to 

OFF

stops cooling in both the freezer 

and fresh food compartments, but does not shut off electrical power 
to the refrigerator.

NOTE: 

The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering the

temperature controls. If this film was not removed during installation,
remove it now.

To change the temperature, 

press and release

the 

(warmer) or 

(colder) pad. The SET

light will come on and the display will show the
set temperature. To change the temperature,
tap either the 

(warmer) or 

(colder) 

pad until the desired temperature is displayed.
Fresh food temperatures can be adjusted
between 34°F and 44°F and the freezer
temperatures can be adjusted between 
-6°F and +6°F.

Once the desired temperature has been set, 
the temperature display will return to the 
actual fresh food and freezer temperatures 
after 5 seconds. Several adjustments may be
required. Each time you adjust controls, 
allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach 
the temperature you have set.

To turn the cooling system off, 

tap the 

(warmer) pad for either the fresh food

compartment or the freezer until the display
shows OFF. 

To turn the unit back on, 

press the

(colder) pad for either the fresh food

compartment or freezer. The SET light will
illuminate on the side you selected. Then press
the 

(colder) pad again (on the side where

the SET light is illuminated) and it will go to
the preset points of 0°F for the freezer and 
37°F for the fresh food compartment. 

Operating Instructions

Stainless Steel Refrigerator

Performance
Air Flow
System

The Performance Air-Flow System is designed
to maximize temperature control in the fresh
food and freezer compartments. This unique
special feature consists of the Air Tower along
the top and back walls of the fresh food
compartment and the Air Tunnel on the
bottom portion of the freezer rear wall. 
Placing food in front of the louvers on these
components will not affect performance. 

Although the Air Tower and the Air Tunnel 
can be removed, doing so will affect
temperature performance. (For removal
instructions, on-line, 24 hours a day, contact 
us at www.monogram.com or call 800.444.1845.
In Canada, call us at 1.800.561.3344.)
