PROPER DISPOSAL OF YOUR OLD REFRIGERATOR

Suffocation Hazard

Remove doors from your old refrigerator. 
Failure to do so can result in death or brain damage.

WARNING

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:

 

J

Take off the doors. 

 

J

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.

 

J

Touch any control button on the dispenser panel to activate the 

display screen. The home screen will appear as shown. 

 

Adjusting 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 

the recommended “mid-setting”. This will be indicated with three 

illuminated bars.
 

IMPORTANT:

 

J

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.

 

J

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.

 

J

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.

 

J

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:

Condition:

Adjustment:

REFRIGERATOR too cold REFRIGERATOR Setting one 

setting lower

REFRIGERATOR too 

warm

REFRIGERATOR Setting one 

setting higher

FREEZER too cold

FREEZER Setting one setting lower

FREEZER too warm/ too 

little ice

FREEZER Setting one setting

The set point range is “1 bar” (least cold) to “5 bars” (coldest). 

Refrigerator Control:

 

J

Press REFRIGERATOR TEMP to view the current set point for the 

refrigerator.

 

J

Press REFRIGERATOR TEMP again to adjust the set point. The 

settings will increase by 1 bar with each press of the button, 

returning to 1 bar after reaching 5.  

After 2 minutes of inactivity, any changes will be saved and the 

display will return to the home screen.

Freezer Control:

 

J

Press FREEZER TEMP to view the current set point for the freezer.
