USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

SETTING THE CONTROLS

AIRFLOW

The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat for the entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer sections). The colder the setting, the longer the compressor will run to keep the temperature colder. The freezer control adjusts the cold air fllow from the freezer to the refrigerator. Setting the freezer control to a lower temperature keeps more cold air in the freezer compartment to make it colder.

Cold air circulates from the freezer to the fresh food section and back again through air vents in the wall dividing the two sections. Be sure not to block vents while packing your refrigerator. Doing so will restrict airfllow and may cause the refrigerator temperature to become too warm or cause interior moisture buildup. (See air fllow diagram below.)

Temperature

The Refrigerator Temp Control ranges from 33°F to

46°F (0°C to 8°C). Press the refrigerator temp button to cycle through the available temperature settings one increment at a time.

The Freezer Temp Control range is from -6°F to 8°F

(-21°C to -13°C).Press the freezer temp button to cycle through the available temperature settings one increment at a time.

NOTE: When changing control settings, wait 24 hours before making additional adjustments. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you would like and when ice cream is firm. If the temperature in either compartment is too cold or too warm, change the setting one increment at a time. Wait 24 hours for the change to stabilize before adjusting again.

Dispenser

• Press the Ice/Water Select button to select eitherWater, Cubed Ice or Crushed Ice. The selected option will illuminate.

Some dripping may occur after dispensing. Hold your cup beneath

the dispenser for a few seconds after dispensing to catch all of the drops.

NOTE: The dispenser will not work if any door is left open or if the control lock is engaged.

CAUTION: The control display is operated by touch. Excessive moisture on the display may cause a malfunction. Please keep the display clean and dry.

Ultra Ice

When you press the Ice button, the Ultra Ice graphic will illuminate in the display and will continue for 24 hours. The function will automatically shut off after 24 hours.

You can stop this function manually by touching the button one more time.

This function increases both ice making and freezing capabilities.

Water Filter Reset

When the water filter indicator turns on, you have to change the water filter. After changing the water filter, press and hold the Water Filter Reset button for three seconds to turn the indicator light off. You need to change the water filter approximately every six months.
