Kenmore 106.511800 manual Adjusting the Controls

Dual evaporation results in higher humidity, which helps keep

foods in the refrigerator from spoiling as quickly and improves food quality and freshness in the freezer due to decreased

freezer burn. In addition, the dual evaporation system helps

keep food smells in the refrigerator from transferring to ice in the freezer.

Air circulates through vents within each compartment, and does not transfer between the compartments.

Do not block any of these vents with food such as soda, cereal, bread, etc. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be obstructed

and temperature and moisture problems may occur.

NOTE: The dual evaporation system is always activated when

your refrigerator is operating. You do not need to press any buttons to turn it on.

The refrigerator and freezer controls are located on the dispenser panel.

IMPORTANT." The display screen on the dispenser control panel

will turn off automatically and enter "sleep" mode when the control buttons and dispenser pad have not been used for

2 minutes or more. While in "sleep" mode, the first press of a

control button will only reactivate the display screen, without

changing any settings. After reactivation, changes to any settings can then be made. If no changes are made within 2 minutes, the display will re-enter "sleep" mode.

•Touch any control button on the dispenser panel to activate the display screen. The home screen will appear as shown.

Adjusting the Controls

For your convenience, your refrigerator and freezer controls are preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the controls are still set to the "mid-settings."The

factory recommended set points are 37°F (3°C) for the

refrigerator and O°F (-18°C) for the freezer.

IMPORTANT:

•Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If

you add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your food may spoil.

NOTE: Adjusting the set points 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.

The preset settings should be correct for normal household usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.

Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments. Recheck the temperatures before other adjustments are made.

To view and adjust the set points, press and hold the TEMPERATURE button for 3 seconds. When adjust mode is activated, adjusting information will appear on the display

screen.

NOTE: To view Celsius temperatures, press the MEASURED FILL button when adjust mode is activated. To return the display setting to Fahrenheit, press MEASURED FILL again.

•When adjust mode is activated, the display screen shows the refrigerator set point and "REFRIGERATOR" appears.

•Press SETTINGS to raise the set point, or press TEMPERATURE to lower the set point.

When you have finished viewing (and adjusting if desired)

the refrigerator set point, press LIGHT to change the display to show the freezer set point. When the zone has been changed, "FREEZER" appears on the display screen.

•Press SETTINGS to raise the set point, or press TEMPERATURE to lower the set point.

•When you have finished viewing (and adjusting if desired)

both the refrigerator and freezer set points, press LOCI< to save the settings.
