Using the Controls

The control center is located on the front of the ice and water dispenser.

Temperature Controls

For your convenience, your temperature controls are preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the controls are still set to the recommended set points as shown.

Recommended Setting

Adjusting Controls

The REFRIGERATOR control adjusts the refrigerator compartment temperature. The FREEZER control adjusts the freezer compartment temperature.

If you need to adjust the temperature in either the refrigerator or freezer compartment, use the settings listed in the chart as a guide.

IMPORTANT:

■When the power is on, the temperature display shows the set point temperature of the compartment.

■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.

■The recommended settings 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.

■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.

To Turn Off/On:

IMPORTANT:

■Depending on your model you may have a control center with an On/Off button (Style 1), or you may have a control center without an On/Off button (Style 2).

■The On/Off control turns off cooling for both compartments and turns off the dispenser. It does not disconnect power to the refrigerator.

Style 1 – Press and hold the On/Off button for three seconds. The red LED will light up to indicate that cooling is Off. Press the On/Off button again to turn on the cooling. The LED will turn off.

To Adjust Set Point Temperatures:

The first touch of the up or down arrow touch pad displays the current temperature set point.

■Press the up or down arrow touch pads until the desired temperature set point is displayed.

NOTE: Except when first turning on the refrigerator, do not adjust either temperature control more than one setting at a time. Wait 24 hours between adjustments for the temperature to stabilize.

Additional Control Center Features

Fast Cool

The Fast Cool feature assists with periods of high refrigerator use, full grocery loads, or temporarily warm room temperatures.

■Press the Fast Cool touch pad to set the freezer and refrigerator to the lowest temperature settings. Press the Fast Cool touch pad again to return to the normal refrigerator set point.

NOTE: The Fast Cool feature will automatically shut off in approximately 2 hours. When fast cool is on, the temperature cannot be adjusted.

Style 2 – Press the Freezer up arrow touch pad until OFF appears in the display. Neither compartment will cool. Press the Freezer or Refrigerator down arrow touch pad to turn the cooling back on.
