USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR
Airflow
In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow
between the refrigerator and freezer sections. The
arrows in the figure indicate air vent locations and
direction of airflow.
Do not block any of the cool air vents with food
packages.
If the vents are blocked, airflow will be
interrupted and temperature and moisture problems
may occur.
If you add a large amount of food,
the refrigerator will take longer to
cool it.
At initial start-up, allow your
refrigerator to run for 2 or 3 hours
before placing food in it.
Caution When Closing the Door
A CAUTION
To reduce the risk of door scratches and breaking the
door mullion, please make sure that the refrigerator
door mullion is always folded in.
If moisture gathers on the refrigerator door mullion at
any point, turn off the Energy Saver mode until the
issue is resolved.
ADJUSTING CONTROL SETTINGS
It is best to wait 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool
down completely before making any adjustments to
the temperature settings. The initial settings
mentioned in SETTING THE CONTROLS section
should be correct for normal household refrigerator
use. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice
is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat
for the entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer
sections). The colder the setting, the longer the
compressor will run to keep the temperature colder.
The freezer control adjusts the cold air flow from the
freezer to the refrigerator. Setting the freezer control
to a lower temperature keeps more cold air in the
freezer compartment to make it colder.
If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator
or freezer, start by adjusting the refrigerator and
allow 24 hours for the temperatures to stabilize. If it
is still too warm or too cold, then adjust the freezer
control.
Always remember to wait at least 24 hours
between adjustments.
