To obtain the best possible results from your refrigerator,
it is important that you operate it properly. This refrigerator
is designed to operate at normal household temperatures
of 55°F to 110°F (13°C to 43°C).
This section tells you how to set the controls, remove
and adjust the features in your refrigerator and how to
save energy.

Setting controls

The Refrigerator and Freezer Controls are located
between the two sections (at the top of the refrigerator
section). The Freezer Control is located to the right side
of the cabinet and the refrigerator control to the left. Set
both controls to "3." Let the refrigerator operate for 24
hours to cool both sections to desired temperatures.

If possible, wait to add food until after this 24-hour period.
Turning the controls to higher number settings will not
cool the sections faster. Adding foods before the
refrigerator has cooled completely could cause the
refrigerator to take longer to reach the desired
temperatures and cause some foods to spoil.
After 24 hours, adjust the controls, one number at a time
as desired. "1" is the warmest setting and "5" is the
coldest. Allow the refrigerator to operate for 24 hours after
each control change.
