Electronic Temperature Control

The electronic temperature controls are located on the evaporator cover in the upper right hand corner.

(See Figure 3-1) The rocker switch controlling the mode of operation is mounted to the top of the evaporator cover. (See Figure 3-2) Temperature is factory preset to provide satisfactory food storage temperatures.

The initial temperature setting "4" is displayed when power is applied the very first time. After the initial power up, the control will read the last saved setting.

Switching Between Refrigerator and Freezer Mode

The unit can be switched between operating as a refrigerator or a freezer by pressing either the “R” for refrigerator mode, or “F” for freezer mode. Positioning the DPDT rocker switch in the middle position will disable all cooling functions. (See Figure 3-2)

Setting Selection

For settings 1 though 7 when the UP button is pushed (to increase temperature), the setting number will decrease by one and when the DOWN button is pushed (to decrease temperature), the setting number will increase by one.

To turn the control off, go to temperature setting "1". Then press the UP key three times within five seconds. The display will show "0".

To turn the control on, press the DOWN key three times within five seconds. The display will show "1".

When the temperature setting is changed to "0", the compressor and defrost system will be turned off.
