REFRIGERATOR USE
Using the Controls
The temperature controls are located at the top front of the
refrigerator or freezer compartments.
Temperature Controls
For your convenience, the temperature controls are preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the
controls are still set to the recommended setting as shown.
Style 1 - Electronic
Recommended Setting “3 Snowflakes”
Style 2 - Dial
Recommended Setting “3 Snowflakes”
IMPORTANT:
■
The recommended setting should be correct for normal
household refrigerator use. The controls are set correctly
when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is
firm.
■
Wait 24 hours for your refrigerator to cool completely before
adding food. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled
completely, your food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer temperature
controls 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.
Adjusting Controls
If you need to adjust the temperature in either the refrigerator or
freezer compartment, use the settings listed in the chart below as
a guide.
Style 1 - Press the TEMP button to display the desired number of
snowflakes from (1 least cold to 4 coldest).
Style 2 - Move the dial to the desired number of snowflakes from
(1 least cold to 5 coldest).
NOTE: Except when starting the refrigerator, do not adjust either
control more than one setting at a time. Wait 24 hours between
adjustments for the temperature to stabilize.
Cooling Off/On
Style 1 - Press and hold TEMP for 3 seconds to turn cooling off.
To turn cooling back on, press and hold TEMP again for
3 seconds.
Style 2 - Move the dial control to the word OFF. To turn cooling
back on, move the dial control to the desired temperature setting.
NOTE: Neither compartment will cool when the control is set to
OFF.
