Temperature Adjustment
• Adjust temperature gradually: adjust the
knob in small increments, allowing the
temperature to stabilize.
• For colder temperatures, adjust the
knob towards Colder.
• For warmer temperatures, adjust the
knob towards Cold.
Adjusting the refrigerator/freezer
control will change temperatures in both
compartments. The auxiliary freezer control
can be left at the factory pre-set (Normal)
or adjusted as desired; it has no effect on
electrical power to the refrigerator.
To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates
air in the refrigerator and freezer
compartments. For good circulation, do
not block cold air vents with food items.
Cool Down Period

NOTE
When first turning
refrigerator on, adjust
the refrigerator control
to Normal. This is the
recommended initial
setting. After 24 hours,
adjust the controls
as needed.

If your unit is
in a garage or
area where the
temperature
is below 55°,
adjust the freezer
control to the
coldest setting.
NOTE
When first turning refrigerator on,
adjust control to Normal. This is the
recommended initial setting. After 24
hours, adjust the controls as needed.
IMPORTANT
Adjusting the refrigerator/freezer temperature
control to “0” turns off the compressor and
prevents the refrigerator from cooling, but does
not disconnect the power to the light bulb and
other electrical components. To turn off power
to your refrigerator, you must unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet.
