*Varying factors such as environment, door openings, refrigerator control settings, etc. may cause the temperature display on the drawer to fluctuate outside the range of temperatures listed above. This is normal. For best results, set the refrigerator and freezer controls at the midpoint (5).

Changing from Fahrenheit to Celsius

To toggle from Fahrenheit to Celsius modes, press the Citrus and Produce buttons simultaneously and hold. Initially an “F” will appear in the display to confirm the current display mode.

After holding the Citrus and Produce buttons for approximately 3 seconds the letter in the display will toggle to a “c”. Once the letter changes, the citrus and produce buttons can be released. The display mode has been changed and the temperature will now be displayed in degrees Celsius.

To change back to Fahrenheit mode, follow the same procedure.

Notes:

If a ClimateZonedrawer is left open, the display will flash.

After prolonged openings and/or loading the drawers, etc. the temperature within the drawer may rise by a few degrees. This is normal. The temperature will recover in a short period of time.

Frozen meats will thaw very slowly on the Meats setting. Thawing should be done outside of the drawers, on the lowest shelf in the refrigerator.

Under heavy usage conditions during hot, humid weather, the exterior surfaces of the ClimateZonedrawers may fog. This is normal. The condensation will clear once the door is closed for a period of time.

Due to the accuracy and the location of the ClimateZoneTechnology temperature sensor system, drawer temperatures measured with household refrigerator thermometers may vary from the drawer temperature display. This is normal.

If ClimateZonedrawers are not opened for a period of four weeks, they will automatically go to the Normal or “off” state. The display will turn off.

ClimateZone™ Light Bulb Replacement

A light is located behind the upper ClimateZone™ compartment. The bulb part number is 61004862; see your Maytag dealer for replacement or call 1-800-688- 8408 to order directly.

Warning: To prevent electric shock, always unplug the refrigerator before changing the light bulb. Wear gloves as protection against possible broken glass.

To remove the compartment assembly for bulb replacement: Unplug the refrigerator. Unload and remove shelf located above the ClimateZonedrawers. Unload and remove the drawers. Remove two 1/4” hex screws located on the left-hand side. Lift the top compartment assembly upward (approx. 1 inch) and pull forward (approx. 2-3 inches). The assembly should rest on its supports.

Replace the bulb: Unscrew bulb and replace.

Caution: Handle the light bulb with care to prevent breakage. The bulb may be hot from use.

To replace: Lift the assembly back into its original position. Align the screw holes. Make sure the assembly is pushed firmly to the left of the refrigerator cavity. Replace the two screws. Replace the drawers into the assemblies, replace the shelf above the assemblies, and reconnect the power to the refrigerator.

Removal of the ClimateZone™ Compartment Assemblies for Cleaning

Unplug the refrigerator. Unload and remove shelf located above the ClimateZonedrawers. Unload and remove the drawers. Remove two 1/4” hex screws located on the left side. Lift the top compartment assembly upward (approx. 1 inch) and pull forward (approx. 2-3 inches). The assembly should rest on its supports. Disconnect the power cords to free the assembly, then pull completely out. Repeat with second compartment assembly.

To replace: Lift the lower assembly back into its original position leaving enough space to reach the power cords. Reconnect the assembly power cords. Push the assembly in all the way to the original position. Align the screw holes. Make sure the assembly is pushed firmly to the left of the refrigerator cavity. Replace the two screws. Repeat with top assembly. Replace the drawers into the assemblies, replace the shelf above the assemblies, and reconnect the power to the refrigerator.

Notes:

Replace the assemblies in their original positions. The ClimateZoneTechnology assembly with the Meats option is always in the top position.

The drawers are interchangeable between the compartments.
