KitchenAid KSRN25FRSS01, 2308392 Convertible Drawer Temperature Control, Crisper Humidity Control

Accelerated Ice Production (on some models)

This feature assists with temporary periods of heavy ice use by increasing ice production over a 24-hour period.

■Press OPTIMICE® feature touch pad to turn on the OptimIce® feature. The OptimIce® setting will remain on for 24 hours unless manually turned off.

■If increased ice production is desired at all times, set the Freezer Control to a colder number. Setting the freezer to a colder temperature may make some foods, such as ice cream, harder.

Temperature System

The Temperature System feature lets you know the compressor or evaporator fan is running. It is normal for this indicator light to be on.

Convertible Drawer Temperature Control

The control can be adjusted to properly chill meats or vegetables. The air inside the pan is cooled to prevent “spot” freezing and can be set to keep meats at the National Livestock and Meat Board recommended storage temperatures of 28° to 32°F (-2° to 0°C). The convertible vegetable/meat drawer control comes preset at the lowest meat setting.

To store meat:

Set the control to one of the three MEAT settings to store meat at its optimal storage temperature.

To store vegetables:

Set the control to VEG to store vegetables at their optimal storage temperatures.

NOTE: If food starts to freeze, move the control to the left (less cold). Remember to wait 24 hours between adjustments.

Crisper Humidity Control

(on some models)

You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed crisper. Adjust the control to any setting between LOW and HIGH.

LOW (open) for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins. HIGH (closed) for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables.

Chilled Door Bin

(on some models)

Cool air from the freezer is directed to the refrigerator door bin directly beneath the vents.

NOTE: The dairy compartment and can rack are not associated with the Chilled Door Bin feature.

Chilled Door Bin Control

The chilled door bin control is located on the left-hand side of the refrigerator compartment.

■Slide the door chill control to the left to reduce the flow of cold air to the bin and make it less cold.

■Slide the door chill control to the right to increase the flow of cold air to the bin and make it colder.

Water and Ice Dispensers

(on some models)

WARNING

Cut Hazard

Use a sturdy glass when dispensing ice or water.

Failure to do so can result in cuts.

Depending on your model, your water and ice dispensers may have one or more of the following features: a water level indicator in the dispenser tray, a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, or a lock option to avoid unintentional dispensing.

NOTES:

■Do not use with water that is microbiologically unsafe or of unknown quality without adequate disinfection before or after the system.

■If your model has a base grille filter system, make sure the base grille filter is properly installed.

■The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open.

■After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the water system by dispensing water into a sturdy container until you draw and discard 1.5 gal. (5.4 L) of water, or for approximately 3 minutes after the water begins dispensing. The flushing process cleans the water system and clears air from the lines. As the air is cleared from the lines, water may spurt out of the dispenser.

■Allow several hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.

■Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three batches of ice produced.

The Water Dispenser

IMPORTANT: Dispense enough water every week to maintain a fresh supply.

To Dispense Water:

1.Press a sturdy glass against the water dispenser pad.

NOTE: While dispensing water and for 3 seconds after dispensing has stopped, the digital display will show how many ounces of water have been dispensed.

2.Remove the glass to stop dispensing.

The Ice Dispenser

Ice dispenses from the ice maker storage bin in the freezer when the dispenser pad is pressed. The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door is open. To turn off the ice maker, see “Ice Maker & Storage Bin.”
