2-7-1. Temperature Control in OptiChill
1. The Optichill is positioned at the bottom of the refrigerator compartment. It allows the user to select a more specific
temperature based on the foods being stored, such as meat, fish, fruits and vegetables, etc.
2. The Optichill system consists of a sensor at the rear of the drawer, a damper, a fan motor between the Optichill
compartment and the freezer, a heater at the bottom of the Optichill compartment, and a temperatur adjustment display at
the top.
3. At initial power-up, the initial setting of the Optichill will be FRUIT VEGE. If only the refrigerator door is opened, the
Optichill LED will be ON.
4. Each time you press the SELECT button, the selection cycles through the settings in the order of FRUIT VEGE
(39°F)
→
CHILLED ROOM (30°F)
→
PARTIAL FREEZING (27°F)
→
WINE(50°F)
→
FRUIT VEGE (39°F). The display will show
the target temperature. If EXPRESS CHILL or THAW is selected, the selected temperature and NOTCH LED are not
shown, and the temperature can be adjusted.
5. The Optichill sensor detects the temperature and relays this information to the MICOM. Based on the temperature and
setting, The damper is opened or closed and the heater is on or off, as the conditions warrant.
6. If the Optichill damper hasn’t moved within an hour, it is automatically opened or closed and then returned to its previous
setting to keep it from freezing in one position.
7. In Display Check mode, the Optichill fan motor is turned on for one minute. To enter the Display Check mode, press and
hold both the Freezer Adjust button and the Express Freezing button for three seconds.
8. If the Optichill fan motor hasn’t run within an hour, it is automatically run for ten seconds once every hour to keep it from
freezing in one position.
