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 some of the features in your refrigerator, and how to save energy.

Setting the controls

Temperature controls

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

1.Set the Refrigerator Control to 4. Refrigerator Control adjustments range from

1(warmest) to 8 (coldest).

2.Set the Freezer Control to C.

Freezer Control adjustments range from A (cakiest) to D (warmest).

3.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, household refrigerator usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm. lf you need to adjust these settings, see “Changing the control settings” on page 8.
