OPERATING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

OPERATING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

Temperature Control

Your refrigerator has one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature control is located on the upper right hand corner of the interior compartment.

The first time you turn the unit on, adjust the temperature control knob to “7” and run for at least 2 hours before putting foods inside. This will ensure the cabinet is thoroughly chilled before food is put in.

The range of the refrigerator temperature control is from position "1" the warmest to "7" the coldest. Adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suits your needs. The setting of “4” should be appropriate for home or office refrigerator use.

NOTE;

If the unit is unplugged, loses power; you must wait 3 to 5 minutes before restarting the unit. If you attempt to restart before this time delay, the refrigerator will not start.

Large amounts of food will lower the cooling efficiency of the appliance.

Do not place the foods on the air outlet, and leave spaces for airflow.

If you choose to change the thermostat setting, adjust thermostat control by one increment at a time. Allow several hours for temperature to stabilize between adjustments.

Ice Tray

Recommended temperature control setting for ice making is “7”.

Fill the ice cube tray (2/3 capacity) with cold water and place the tray on the bottom of the chiller compartment to freeze properly.

To eject the ice cubes from the tray, place over the ice bucket and twist slightly.

Re-set the temperature control to setting “4”.

The Chiller Compartment

This compartment is designed for the ice making and short-term storage of some commercially frozen foods.

The temperature of the chiller compartment may not reach temperature low enough to store frozen foods safely and works well when the food is already frozen prior to storage.

Place frozen food into the freezer as quickly as possible after purchase. If there are instructions on the packet, carefully follow these instructions regarding storage times.

How To Defrost

Defrost the freezer compartment when the ice / frost is approximately ¼” thick. Set the thermostat dial to “0” to defrost. Remove all contents from the freezer compartment. Leave the freezer door open to allow accumulated ice / frost to melt. Remove large pieces of ice as needed. Do not use hot water or other electric heating devices to melt the accumulated ice. After defrosting, remove accumulated ice / water and wipe the freezer compartment dry with a soft cloth. Restart the unit per starting instructions.
