USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
To obtain the best possible results form your refrigerator, it is important that you operate
it properly.
THERMOSTAT CONTROL
The thermostat for both the refrigerator and freezer is located at the upper right hand
corner inside the refrigerator compartment. The thermostat has a total of 7 settings,
from 1 to 6 (1 = least cold / 6 = coldest) and OFF.

temperature control knob to 3 and give your
refrigerator time to cool down completely before
adding food; a full 24 hours is recommended.

for colder setting. Setting the thermostat at 3 is
recommended for general home or office use.
