3.Lift open the vented air filter door. On some models, there are notches behind the door.

On models with notches:

Slide the indicator down into the notches, facing outward.

NOTE: The indicator will not easily slide into the notches if the rear bubble has not been popped.

Close the air filter door, and check that the indicator is visible through the rectangular hole in the door.

Interior Dispenser Models

The control panel is located at the top front of the refrigerator compartment.

For your convenience, the temperature control is preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the control is still set to the recommended setting as shown.

Recommended Setting “3rd Snowflake”

Adjusting the Controls

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

Press the TEMP button to display the desired number of snowflakes (1 snowflake [least cold] to all snowflakes [coldest]).

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

REFRIGERATOR USE

Using the Controls

Depending on your model, the control panel is located either at the top front of the refrigerator compartment or on the dispenser display. Follow the instructions specific to your model.

IMPORTANT:

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 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.

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.

Cooling On/Off

Press and hold TEMP for 3 seconds to turn cooling off. To turn cooling back on, press and hold TEMP again for 3 seconds.

NOTE: Neither compartment will cool when the control is set to OFF.

Additional Features

Filters Reset (on some models)

The Filters Reset control allows you to restart the filter status tracking feature each time you replace the air filter or water filter.

Press and hold FILTERS RESET for 3 seconds. The filter icons will turn off. See “Install Air Filter” and “Water Filtration System.”
