Using the Controls
The refrigerator and freezer controls are located on the dispenser
panel.
IMPORTANT: The display screen on the dispenser control panel
will turn off automatically and enter “sleep” mode when the
control buttons and dispenser levers have not been used for
2 minutes or more. While in “sleep” mode, the first press of a
control button will only reactivate the display screen, without
changing any settings. After reactivation, changes to any settings
can then be made. If no changes are made within 2minutes, the
display will re-enter “sleep” mode.
■Touch any control button on the dispenser panel to activate
the display screen. The home screen will appear as shown.

Adjusting the Controls

For your convenience, your refrigerator and freezer controls are
preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make
sure that the controls are still set to the “mid-settings.” The factory
recommended set points are 37°F (3°C) for the refrigerator and
0°F (-18°C) for the freezer.
IMPORTANT:
■Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If you
add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your
food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the set points to a colder than
recommended setting will not cool the compartments any
faster.
■If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator or
freezer, first check the air vents to be sure they are not
blocked before adjusting the controls.
■The preset settings should be correct for normal household
usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as
cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
■Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments. Recheck the
temperatures before other adjustments are made.
To view and adjust the set points, press and hold the
TEMPERATURE button for 3 seconds. When adjust mode is
activated, adjusting information will appear on the display screen.
NOTE: To view Celsius temperatures, press the LIGHT button
when adjust mode is activated. To return the display setting to
Fahrenheit, press LIGHT again.
■When adjust mode is activated, the display screen shows the
refrigerator set point and “REFRIGERATOR” appears.
■Press LOCK to raise the set point, or press OPTIONS to lower
the set point.
■When you have finished viewing (and adjusting if desired) the
refrigerator set point, press TEMPERATURE to change the
display to show the freezer set point. When the zone has been
changed, “FREEZER” appears on the display screen.
■Press LOCK to raise the set point, or press OPTIONS to lower
the set point.
■When you have finished viewing (and adjusting if desired) both
the refrigerator and freezer set points, press MEASURED FILL
to save the settings.
NOTE: To exit without saving changes, press ICE MODE at
any time while in adjust mode, or allow about 60 seconds of
inactivity and adjust mode will turn off automatically.
When adjusting temperature set points, use the following chart as
a guide.
The set point range for the refrigerator is 33°F to 45°F (0°C to
7°C). The set point range for the freezer is -5°F to 5°F (-21°C to
-15°C).

Cooling On/Off

Your refrigerator and freezer will not cool when cooling is
turned off.
■To turn cooling off, press and hold the LOCK and MEASURED
FILL buttons at the same time for 3 seconds.
IMPORTANT: To avoid unintentionally locking the dispenser
or changing other settings, be sure to press both buttons at
exactly the same time.
When cooling is off, “REFRIGERATION COOLING IS OFF” will
appear on the display screen.
■Press and hold LOCK and MEASURED FILL for 3 seconds
again to turn cooling back on.

Additional Features

Max Cool and Max Ice
The Max Cool feature assists with periods of heavy ice usage, full
grocery loads, or temporarily warm room temperatures.
The Max Ice feature assists with temporary periods of heavy ice
use by increasing ice production over a 24-hour period.
■To turn on the Max Cool feature, press the OPTIONS button to
enter Options mode, then press OPTIONS again to activate
the feature. The Max Cool icon will appear on the dispenser
display.
The Max Cool feature will remain on for 24hours unless
manually turned off. To manually turn it off, press the
OPTIONS button to enter Options mode (unless you are
already in Options mode), then press OPTIONS again. When
the feature has been turned off, the Max Cool icon will
