Control Settings
Initially, set the control(s) at
4
. Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize.
Several adjustments may be required. Adjust the control(s) one increment at a time and
allow 12 hours after each adjustment for the refrigerator to reach the temperature you
have set.
Setting the refrigerator control to
1
stops cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator
compartments but does not shut off electrical power to the refrigerator. The freezer
control (on some models) has no effect on electrical power to the refrigerator.
Control settings will vary based on personal preferences, usage and operating conditions,
and may require more than one adjustment. Factors that affect temperature include the
amount of food in the refrigerator or freezer, the frequency of door opening and the
temperature of food when it is placed in the refrigerator.
