REFRIGERATOR USE
Using the Controls
For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the
controls are still preset. The Refrigerator Control and the Freezer
Control should both be at the “mid-settings” as shown in the
illustrations below.
Setting the dial controls (on some models):
The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. Settings to the left of the mid-setting make the
temperature less cold. Settings to the right of the mid-setting
make the temperature colder.
Style 1
Style 2
NOTE: Your product will not cool when the Refrigerator Control is
set to “0” (OFF).
The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer compartment
temperature. Settings to the left of the mid-setting make the
temperature less cold. Settings to the right of the mid-setting
make the temperature colder.

Give your refrigerator time to cool down completely before
adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food into
the refrigerator.
IMPORTANT: If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled
completely, your food may spoil. Turning the Refrigerator and
Freezer Controls to a higher (colder) than recommended setting
will not cool the compartments any faster.
NOTE: The Automatic Exterior Moisture control continuously
guards against moisture buildup on the outside of your
refrigerator cabinet. This control does not have to be set or
adjusted.
Setting the slide controls (on some models):
The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. Settings to the left of the mid-setting make the
temperature less cold. Settings to the right of the mid-setting
make the temperature colder.
The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer compartment
temperature. Settings to the left of the mid-setting make the
temperature less cold. Settings to the right of the mid-setting
make the temperature colder.
NOTE: Your product will not cool when the Freezer Control is set
to OFF.
