Setting the Controls:
For your convenience, your
refrigerator controls are preset
at the factory. When you first
install your refrigerator, make
sure that the controls are still
preset. The Refrigerator Control
and the Freezer Control should
both be at “4”(MID) as shown
in the illustrations below.
The Refrigerator Control adjusts
the refrigerator compartment
temperature and is located
on the upper rear wall in the
refrigerator section. Settings to the
left of the mid-setting make the
temperature less cold. Settings to the
right of the mid-setting make the
temperature coldest.
The Freezer Control adjusts the
freezer compartment
temperature and is located at
the top of the freezer section.
Setting to the left of the mid-setting
make the temperature less cold.
Settings to the right of the mid-setting
make the temperature coldest.
Give your refrigerator time to cool
down completely before adding food.
It is best to wait 24 hours before you
put food into the refrigerator.
IMPORANT: If you add food before
the refrigerator has cooled completely,
your food may spoil. Turning the
Refrigerator and Freezer Control
to a higher (colder) than com-
partments any faster.
Adjusting Control Settings
Give the refrigerator time to cool down
completely before adding food. It is
best to wait 24 hours before you put
food into the refrigerator. The settings
indicated in the previous section should
be correct for normal household refrig-
erator usage. The controls are set cor-
rectly when milk or juice is as cold as
you like and when ice cream is firm.
If you need to adjust temperatures
in the refrigerator or freezer, use the
settings listed in the chart below as
a guide. Always remember to
wait at least 24 hours between
adjustments.
