About the controls with temperature settings.

(on some models)

(on some models)

NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering the temperature controls. If this film was not removed during installation, remove it now.

The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F for the refrigerator compartment and 0°F for the freezer compartment. Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the preset recommended settings.

The temperature controls can display both the SET temperature as well as the actual temperature in the refrigerator and freezer. The actual temperature may vary slightly from the SET temperature based on usage and operating environment.

Setting either or both controls to OFF stops cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator compartments, but does not shut off electrical power to the refrigerator.

Changing the Temperature

 

For Controls-on-the-Door Models:

 

To change the temperature, press and release the

 

WARMER or COLDER pad. The ACTUAL TEMP light

 

will come on and the display will show the actual

 

temperature. To change the temperature, tap either

 

the WARMER or COLDER pad until the desired

 

temperature is displayed.

 

For Controls Inside the Refrigerator:

 

Opening the door displays the actual temperature. To

 

change the temperature, press either the WARMER or

 

COLDER touch pads until the desired temperature is

 

displayed.

 

Once the desired temperature has been set,

 

the temperature display will return to the actual

4

refrigerator and freezer temperatures after 5

seconds. Several adjustments may be required. Each

 

time you adjust controls, allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to reach the temperature you have set.

To turn the cooling system off, tap the WARMER pad for either the refrigerator or the freezer until the display shows OFF. To turn the unit back on, press the COLDER pad for either the refrigerator or freezer. Then press the COLDER pad again and it will go to the preset points of 0°F for the freezer and 37°F for the refrigerator. Setting either or both controls to OFF stops cooling in both the freezer and refrigerator compartments, but does not shut off electrical power to the refrigerator.
