If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator or freezer, first check the air vents to be sure they are not blocked before adjusting the controls.

Control Panel

Depending on your model, your refrigerator has either an internal control panel, located at the top of the refrigerator compartment, or an external control panel, located above the external water dispenser. Follow the instructions specific to your model.

Internal Control Panel

External Control Panel

IMPORTANT (External Control only): The display screen on the dispenser control panel will turn off automatically and enter “sleep” mode when the control buttons and dispenser paddles have not been used for 2 minutes or more. While in “sleep” mode, the first press of a control button will only reactivate the display screen, without changing any settings. After reactivation, changes to any settings can then be made. If no changes are made within 2 minutes, the display will re-enter “sleep” mode.

Touch any control button on the dispenser panel to activate the display screen.

Temperature Control

For your convenience, the temperature control is preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the control is still set to the recommended setting as shown.

Recommended Setting “3 Snowflakes”

Adjusting the Controls

If you need to adjust the temperature in either the refrigerator or freezer compartment, use the settings listed in the following chart as a guide.
