Temperature is too warm

Are the air vents blocked in either compartment? This prevents the movement of cold air from the freezer to the refrigerator. Remove any objects from in front of the air vents.

See "Ensuring Proper Air Circulation" for the location of air vents.

Is the refrigerator not cooling? For models with digital controls, turn the unit OFF then ON again to reset. See "Using

the Controls." If this does not correct the problem, call for service.
