The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 5 for both the refrigerator and freezer compartments. Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the preset recommended settings.
Setting either or both controls to 0 stops cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator compartments, but does not shut off electrical power to the refrigerator.
Control settings will vary based on personal preferences, usage, and operating conditions and may require more than one adjustment.
NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering the temperature controls. If this film was not removed during installation, remove it now.
Testing and Adjusting Temperatures
Several adjustments may be required. Each time you adjust controls, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the temperature you have set.
