Two controls let you regulate the temperature in the fresh food and freezer compartments.
At first, set the fresh food and freezer controls at the center of the "NORM" range.
Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize, whether you are setting the controls for the first time or adjusting them later. Then, if you want colder or warmer temperatures in either compartment, adjust the controls one step at a time_

How to Test Temperatures
Use the rnillk test for the fresh food
compartment. Place a container of milk on the top shelf in the fresh food compartment. Check it a day later° If the milk is too warm or too cold, adjust the temperature controls.
Use the ice cream test for the freezer
compartment. Place a container of ice cream in the center of the freezer compartment. Check it after a day. If it'stoo hard or too soft, adjust the temperature controls,
Turning Your Household Thermostat Below 60°1=. at Night?
You may want to move the freezer control one step colder. Cooler temperatures in the house may cause the compressor to operate less frequently, thus
allowing the freezer compartment to warm somewhat.
To protect your frozen food supply, leave your freezer control at this new, colder setting for the entire winter
or for as long as you keep your thermostat turned down.
Moving the freezer control to a colder setting should have no effect on your fresh food compartment_ However, if freezing occurs, move the numbered control one step warmer.
When you stop turning the household thermostat down at night, move the refrigerator temperature controls back to their regular settings.
