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 38°F (3°C) for the refrigerator and
0°F(-18°C) for the freezer.
IMPORTANT:
Wait 24hours 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 temperatures 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 24hours between adjus tments. 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).

Your refrigerator and freezer will not cool when cooling is

exactly the same time

appear on the dispenser display screen. The Max Cool
feature will remain on for 24 hours unless manually turned off.

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 disappear on the
