PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD REFRIGERATOR
IMPORTANT: Child entrapment and suffocation are not problems of the
past. Junked or abandoned refrigerators are still dangerous, even if
they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your old
refrigerator, please follow these instructions to help prevent accidents.
Before You Throw Away Your Old Refrigerator or Freezer:
■
Take off the doors.
■
Leave the shelves in place so that children may not easily climb
inside.
Using the Controls
The refrigerator and freezer controls are located on the dispenser
panel.
IMPORTANT: The display screen on the dispenser control panel will
turn off automatically and enter “sleep” mode when the control buttons
and dispenser lever have not been used for 2 minutes or more. While in
“sleep” mode, the first press of a control button will only reactivate the
display screen, without changing any settings.
■
Touch any control button on the dispenser panel to activate the
display screen. The home screen will appear as shown.
Adjusting the Controls
For your convenience, your refrigerator and freezer controls are preset
at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that
both the refrigerator and freezer controls are still set to “4,” the
recommended “mid-setting.”
IMPORTANT:
■
Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If you add
food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your food may
spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the set points to a colder than recommended
setting will not cool the compartments any faster.
■
If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator or
freezer, first check the air vents to be sure they are not blocked
before adjusting the controls.
■
The preset settings should be correct for normal household usage.
The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you
like and when ice cream is firm.
■
Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments. Recheck the
temperatures before other adjustments are made.
When adjusting set points, use the following chart as a guide.
The set point range is “1” (coldest) to “7” (least cold). When the
recommended “mid-setting” (“4”) is selected, a check mark appears
next to the setting.
Refrigerator Control:
■
Press FRIDGE TEMP to view the current set point for the
refrigerator.
■
Press FRIDGE TEMP again to adjust the set point. The setting will
decrease by 1 with each press of the button, looping back to “7”
after reaching “1.”
After 60 seconds of inactivity, any changes will be saved and the
display will return to the home screen.
Suffocation Hazard
Remove doors from your old refrigerator.
Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.
WARNING
Important information to know about disposal of
refrigerants:
Dispose of refrigerator in accordance with Federal and Local
regulations. Refrigerants must be evacuated by a licensed,
EPA certified refrigerant technician in accordance with
established procedures.
