IMPORTANT:
Your product will not cool when the REFRIGERATOR Control
is set to OFE
The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer
compartment
temperature. Settings to the left of the mid-
setting make the temperature less cold. Settings to the right of
the mid-setting
make the temperature colder.
Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If you
add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely, your
food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer Controls to a higher
(colder) than recommended
setting will not cool the
compartments
any faster.
