ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION
In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow
between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown
in the illustration below, air enters at top of freezer and
circulates down. From bottom of freezer, air is forced up
to top of refrigerator. Air enters refrigerator through top
vent, then circulates and exists at bottom, where it returns
to freezer.
MULTI-FLOW
Multi-Flow means powerful and effective cooling
operation. This is especially noticeable when new food
is placed in the refrigerator compartment.
If water or foreign substances enter the cool air vent
while cleaning, efficiency will be lowered. In addition, if
gasket is damaged, efficiency may be lowered because
of escaping cool air.
Do not block any of cool air vents
with food packages.
If the vents are blocked, airflow will be interrupted and
temperature and moisture problems may occur.
IMPORTANT:
Because air circulates between both
sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to
the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to
eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer and drying out of
food, wrap or cover foods tightly. (See the Food Storage
Guide section for details.)
CONTROL PANEL
Your refrigerator has two controls that let you regulate
the temperature in the freezer and refrigerator
compartments.
Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL and the
FREEZER CONTROL at position number “4”.
Leave it at this setting for 24 hours (one day) to
stabilize. Then adjust the compartment temperature
as desired.
USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
DOOR ALARM
With this feature you´ll listen a alarm when the freezer or
refrigerator door is not closed within 1 minute after it is
opened. These tones repeat every 30 seconds.
The alarm is cancelled when the freezer or the
refrigerator is closed correctly.

The higher the number setting, the colder the refrigerator
compartment will become.
Freezer control: position 1 to 7

When the setting is at a higher number, the freezer
compartment becomes colder.

ADJUSTING CONTROL SETTINGS
Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before
adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put
food into the refrigerator. The mid-settings indicated in the
previous section should be correct for normal household
refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when
milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream
is firm.
The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat for the
entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer sections.) The
higher the number setting, the longer the compressor will
run to keep the temperature colder. The freezer control
adjusts the cold air flow from the freezer to the
refrigerator. Setting the freezer control to a lower
temperature keeps more cold air in the Freezer
compartment to make it colder.
If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or
freezer, start by adjusting the refrigerator first. Wait 24
hours after the refrigerator adjustment to check the
freezer temperature. If it is too warm or too cold, then
adjust the freezer control as well.
Use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide.
Always remember to wait at least 24 hours between
adjustments.
