KitchenAid 2006136 EXTENDFRESH Temperature Management System

6

The ExtendFresh Temperature Management System

controls the temperature in both the refrigerator

compartment and the freezer compartment independently.

The system helps extend the freshness of the food in your

refrigerator by responding to temperature changes as

small as 1°F.Unlike most refrigerators on the market

today, the ExtendFresh System uses a Smart* Fan to

transfer cold air immediately from the freezer to the

refrigerator for faster response to temperature changes

without the need for the compressor to turn on.Also, the

system maintains consistent temperatures, which are less

affected by external temperature changes such as

seasonal changes and programmable home thermostats

or even the temperature of other compartments inside the

refrigerator.

EXTENDFRESH™ Temperature Management System

Setting temperature Controls

The Refrigerator and the Freezer Controls have been

preset at the factory.These settings should be correct for

normal household refrigerator use. Let the refrigerator

operate for 24 hours to cool both sections before

changing settings.

To change a temperature setting:

Adjust the Refrigerator and/or Freezer Control.

•To make the refrigerator or freezer colder, turn the

control knob clockwise.

•To make the refrigerator or freezer less cold, turn the

control knob counterclockwise.

IMPORTANT:The OFF setting on the Freezer Control

stops all cooling action in the refrigerator, but it does not

disconnect the refrigerator from the power supply.

If possible, wait to add food until after this 24-hour period.

Turning the controls to higher number settings will not

cool the sections faster.Adding foods before the

refrigerator has cooled completely could cause the

refrigerator to take longer to reach the desired

temperatures and cause some foods to spoil.

After 24 hours, adjust the controls, one number at a time

as desired.“1” is the warmest setting and “5”is the

coldest.Allow the refrigerator to operate for 24 hours after

each control change.
