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.
To Adjust the Set Points:
The temperature set points appear on the display screen.
■
To adjust the refrigerator set point, press FRIDGE TEMP.
The set point range for the refrigerator is 2°C to 6°C.
■
To adjust the freezer set point, press FREEZER TEMP.
The set point range for the freezer is -24°C to -18°C.
NOTE: Each button press advances the temperature setting 1°
higher. After reaching the highest possible set point, the next
button press reverts the setting to the lowest possible set point,
and then each additional press raises the setting 1° higher.
When adjusting temperature set points, use the following chart as
a guide.
Eco Energy
When the most economic and energy-efficient temperature
setting (6°C for the refrigerator or -18°C for the freezer) is
selected, the Eco Energy icon appears on the display screen.
There is one icon for each compartment.
NOTE: On models without a dispenser, you can automatically
select the Eco Energy settings by pressing the ECO ENERGY
button on the control panel. Pressing the button a second time will
restore the previous temperature set points.
Cooling On/Off
Your refrigerator and freezer will not cool when cooling is
turned off.
■
To turn cooling off, press and hold the VACATION MODE and
FRIDGE TEMP buttons at the same time for 3 seconds.
IMPORTANT: To avoid unintentionally changing other
settings, be sure to press both buttons at exactly the same
time.
When cooling is off, “COOLING OFF” will appear on the
display screen.
■
Press and hold VACATION MODE and FRIDGE TEMP for
3 seconds again to turn cooling back on.
Vacation Mode
Vacation Mode is designed to help save energy when the
refrigerator will not be used for a few days.
IMPORTANT: Do not use Vacation Mode if perishable foods are
stored in the refrigerator compartment. Such items will likely spoil
if Vacation Mode is active for more than a few hours.
In Vacation Mode, the refrigerator temperature set point is
changed to 12°C and the interior lights turn off. Also, on models
with a dispenser, the dispenser light turns off and the dispenser is
disabled.
■
Press VACATION MODE to turn on Vacation Mode. The
refrigerator temperature display changes to “-” and the
Vacation Mode icon appears on the display screen.
■
To turn off the Vacation Mode feature, press VACATION
MODE again or press FRIDGE TEMP. (A single press of
FRIDGE TEMP will simply restore the previous refrigerator set
point; additional presses will adjust the setting.) If Vacation
Mode has been active for 1 hour or more, opening either the
refrigerator or freezer door will also turn off the Vacation Mode
feature. The Vacation Mode icon will disappear when the
feature is off.
The Control Lock
The control panel can be turned off for easy cleaning or to avoid
unintentional changes by small children and pets.
NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the refrigerator
or to the ice maker. It simply deactivates the control buttons and
dispenser pad, and turns off the dispenser light. To turn off the ice
maker, see “Ice Maker and Storage Bin.”
The display screen indicates when the control panel is locked.
On models with a dispenser:
■
Press and hold ICE SELECTION and RESET ALARM for
3 seconds to lock the control panel and dispenser.
IMPORTANT: To avoid unintentionally changing other
settings, be sure to press both buttons at exactly the same
time.
■
Press and hold ICE SELECTION and RESET ALARM a second
time to unlock the control panel and dispenser.
On models without a dispenser:
■
Press and hold ECO ENERGY and RESET ALARM for
3 seconds to lock the control panel.
IMPORTANT: To avoid unintentionally changing other
settings, be sure to press both buttons at exactly the same
time.
■
Press and hold ECO ENERGY and RESET ALARM a second
time to unlock the control panel.
Air Filter Status Indicator
The air filter status indicator, located on the control panel’s display
screen, will help you know when to change your air filter.
■
When the air filter is in good condition, the air filter status
indicator icon does not appear on the control panel.
■
When the control panel’s air filter status indicator icon appears
in orange, this tells you that it is almost time to change the air
filter. It is recommended that you order a replacement filter
when the orange icon appears.
■
Replace the air filter when the air filter status indicator icon
changes from orange to red. The filter should be replaced at
least every 6 months.
See “Install Air Filter” for instructions on replacing.
■
After changing the air filter, reset the status indicator by
pressing and holding the RESET ALARM button for
3 seconds. When the system is reset, the air filter status
indicator icon will disappear from the display screen.
