Control Settings
Freezer Control
The freezer control moves a damper to change the amount of cold air that moves from the freezer to the
refrigerator compartment.
Refrigerator Control
The refrigerator control maintains the temperatures throughout the refrigerator.
Moving the refrigerator control to OFF stops cooling in both areas-refrigerator and freezer-but does not shut off
power to the refrigerator.
How To Test Temperatures
Use the milk test for the reffigerator compartment. Place a container of milk on the top shelf and check it a day
later. If the milk is too warm or too cold, adjust the temperature control.
Use the ice cream test for the freezer compartment. Place a container of ice cream in the center of the freezer
and check it after a day. If it's too hard or too soft, adjust the temperature control.
After changing the controls, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the temperature you have set
Food Storage
The type of packaging used and the storage temperatures will affect how long food willl I keep in the refrigera-
tor.
If you want colder or warmer temperatures,
adjust therefrigerator temperature firstWhen
satisfied with that, adjust the freezer tempera-
ture.
