Adjusting Control Settings
Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer, use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments.

■A trap door opens in a chute between the dispenser and the ice bin.
■Ice moves from the bin and falls through the chute.
■When you release the dispenser lever, the trap door closes and the ice dispensing stops. The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open.
