REFRIGERATOR USE

Using the Controls

Your model may have Electronic Controls or Digital Controls.

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 Controls to a higher (colder) than recommended setting will not cool the compartments any faster.

The recommended settings 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 rm.

If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator or freezer, rst check the air vents to be sure they are not blocked before adjusting the controls.

Electronic Controls

For your convenience, your refrigerator and freezer controls are preset at the factory. When you rst install your refrigerator, make sure the controls are still set to the recommended setting as shown.

Recommended Setting “4”

To Turn Your Refrigerator O/On:

To turn the refrigerator o, press the freezer down arrow touch pad until a dash (-) appears in both the refrigerator and freezer displays. Neither compartment will cool.

Adjusting Electronic Controls
