In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit air to flow between the two sections. Cold air enters the bottom of the

freezer section and moves up. It then enters the refrigerator

section through the top vent. Air then returns to the freezer as shown.

To turn refrigerator on and view set points:

Press and hold ON/OFF for 2 seconds.

Do not block any airflow vents. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be obstructed and temperature and moisture problems may occur.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must

thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

Your model may have Digital Controls or Electronic Controls.

IMPORTANT:

The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment temperature. The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer compartment temperature.

Wait 24 hours after you turn on the refrigerator before you put food into it. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled

completely, your food may spoil.

NOTE: Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer Controls to a colder 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.

Digital Controls

For your convenience, your controls are preset at the factory. When installing your refrigerator, make sure that the controls are still preset to the mid-settings as shown. The digital control panel is located at the top of the refrigerator compartment and enables you to view the temperature control set points.

NOTE: The factory recommended set points are 0°F (-18°C) for the freezer and 37°F (3°C) for the refrigerator.

To view the Celsius temperatures:

Press the °C SELECT touch pad. The indicator will light up.

NOTE: If the freezer temperature is below zero, the indicator light

next to the freezer display will light up.

Adjusting Digital Controls

To adjust set point temperatures:

Press the refrigerator or freezer up or down arrow until the desired temperature is reached.

NOTE: Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments and then recheck the temperatures before other adjustments are made.

The set point range for the freezer is -5°F to 5°F (-21 °C to -15°C) and 33°F to 41 °F (1°C to 5°C) for the refrigerator.
