Refrigerator operation

The available temperature range of the refrigerator is 33° to 45° (1° to 7° C). It may take up to 24 hours for your refrigerator to reach desired temperature. This will depend on amount of con- tents loaded and number of openings and closings of the door. For best results allow refrigerator to “pull down” to desired set point before loading. Once contents are loaded, allow at least 48 hours for temperature to stabilize before making any adjust- ments to the set point.
