To Change Temperature Control Setting with Touch Pads:
• Freezer setting is on the left side of the display.
• Refrigerator setting is on the right side of the display.
— Press the Warmer or Colder pad for compartment and direction desired.
— Present control setting number will illuminate.
— Each time the pad is touched, compartment setting changes one number.
A display of 1 is warmest and 9 is the coldest setting.
To Turn Cooling Off:
To stop cooling in the refrigerator and freezer compartments, first repeatedly press
the Warmer pad for the freezer until its display continuously flashes “1”. Then, using
the refrigerator control, repeatedly press Warmer until both displays flash “0”. “0” in both
displays turns off the cooling system. On some models, it may be necessary to set only
one control to 0 to turn off cooling in both compartments.
NOTE: Turning the refrigerator to the 0 (off) setting via the controls does not shut off
electrical power to the refrigerator.
Control settings will vary based on personal preferences, usage and
operating conditions and may require more than one adjustment.
