Two controls let you
regulate the temperature in the fresh food and
freezer compartments°
At first, set the fresh food control at °'4"and the freezer control at "C?

warmer temperatures in either compartment, adjust the controls one letter or number at a time.

cooling in both

compartment. Place a container of ice cream in the center of the freezer compartment° Check it after a day. If it'stoo hard or too soft, adjust the temperature controls.
Turning Your Household Thermostat Below 60°F. at Night?
You may want to turn the lettered control one step colder, as from "C" to "D'.'Cooler temperatures in the house may cause the compressor to operate less frequently, thus allowing the freezer compartment to warm somewhat.
To protect your frozen food supply, leave your lettered control at this new, colder setting for the entire winter or for as long as you keep your thermostat turned down_
Turning the lettered control to a colder setting should have no effect on your fresh food compartment. However, if freezing occurs, turn the numbered control one step warmer, as from "4" to "3':
When you stop turning the household thermostat down at night, turn the refrigerator temperature controls back to their regular settings_
