Using Your Refrigerator

To obtain the best possible results from your refrigerator, it is important that you operate it properly. This section tells you how to set the temperature control, remove and adjust some of the features in your refrigerator, and how to save energy.

Setting the temperature control

The Temperature Control is located on the back wall of the refrigerator compartment. It controls the temperature in both the refrig- erator and freezer compartments. When you plug in the refrigerator for the first time:

Set the Temperature Control knob to 5. Temperature Control adjustments range from 1 (warmest) to 9 (coldest).

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. This could take several hours. Adjust the Temperature Control so food is as cold as you like. Move the dial 1 number at a time, and wait 24 hours between adjustments.

NOTE: During high humidity, moisture may form on the outside of the cabinet. To prevent rust, dry the cabinet and reset the Temperature Control to a cooler setting.
