UsingYourRefrigerator

Setting the controls

Controls for the refrigerator and freezer are in the refrigerator, When the refrigerator is plugged in for the first time:

1. Set the Refrigerator Control to 3.

2. Set the Freezer Control to B.

Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding food. (This may take several hours.) These settings should be about right for normal

household refrigerator usage.

The controls will be set about right when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.

If you need to adjust temperatures in refrigerator or freezer, use the settings listed in the chart below.
