USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION

In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown in the illustration below, air enters at top of freezer and circulates down. From bottom of freezer, air is forced up to top of refrigerator. Air enters refrigerator through top vent, then circulates and exists at bottom, where it returns to freezer.

MULTI-FLOW

Multi-Flow means powerful and effective cooling operation. This is especially noticeable when new food is placed in the refrigerator compartment.

If water or foreign substances enter the cool air vent while cleaning, efficiency will be lowered. In addition, if gasket is damaged, efficiency may be lowered because of escaping cool air.

Do not block any of cool air vents with food packages. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be interrupted and temperature and moisture problems may occur.

IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To prevent odor transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly. (See the Food Storage Guide section for details.)

DOOR ALARM

With this feature you´ll listen a alarm when the freezer or refrigerator door is not closed within 1 minute after it is opened. These tones repeat every 30 seconds.

The alarm is cancelled when the freezer or the refrigerator is closed correctly.

SETTING THE CONTROLS

(Models without water dispenser)

Your refrigerator has two controls that let you regulate the temperature in the freezer and refrigerator compartments.

Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL and the FREEZER CONTROL at position number “4”.

Leave it at this setting for 24 hours (one day) to

stabilize. Then adjust the compartment temperature

as desired.

Middle Models(Identify your control type)

Refrigerator control: position 1 to 7, represent the

following temperature range(32°F to 47°F or 0°C to 8°C)

The higher the number setting, the colder the refrigerator

compartment will become.

REFRIGERATOR TEMP

ADJUST WARMER 4 IS RECOMMENDED

Freezer control: position 1 to 7

(-6°F to 8°F or -21°C to -13°C)

When the setting is at a higher number, the freezer

compartment becomes colder.

Ice Plus

Press the Ice Plus key and the LED will turn

on. This function will remain activated for 24 hours and intensify the cooling speed of freezer and increase the amount of ice.

WARMER 4 IS RECOMMENDED COLDER ADJUST

ADJUSTING CONTROL SETTINGS

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. The mid-settings indicated in the previous section should be correct for normal household refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.

The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat for the entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer sections.) The higher the number setting, the longer the compressor will run to keep the temperature colder. The freezer control adjusts the cold air flow 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.

If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer, start by adjusting the refrigerator first. Wait 24 hours after the refrigerator adjustment to check the freezer temperature. If it is too warm or too cold, then adjust the freezer control as well.

Use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide.

Always remember to wait at least 24 hours between

adjustments.
