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 controls, remove, and adjust the features in your refrigerator, and how to save energy.

Setting the controls

Controls for the refrigerator and freezer are in the refrigerator. When you plug in the refrigerator for the first time:

1.Sk the Refrigerator Control to 4

(Recommended Setting). Refrigerator Control settings range from 1 (warmest) to 8 (coldest).

2.Set the Freezer Control to C (Recom- mended Setting). Freezer Control settings range from A (coldest) to

D (warmest).

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. This may take several hours. The settings indicated above should be correct for normal, house- hold refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm. If you need to adjust these settings, see “Changing the control settings” on page 8.

Exterior moisture control

The Exterior Moisture Control operates electric heaters around the door openings. These heaters help keep moisture from form- ing on the outside of the refrigerator cabinet.

l Use the OFF setting when humidity is low.

l Use the ON setting if moisture forms on the outside of the refrigerator cabinet.
