NOTE: Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer controls to a
lower (colder) setting will not cool the compartments any
faster.
If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator or
freezer, first check the air vents to be sure they are not
blocked before adjusting the controls.
The preset settings should be correct for normal household
usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as
cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
The actual temperature may differ from the display when a
door is open for an extended period of time.
NOTE: The factory recommended set points are 0°F (-18°C) for
the freezer and 37°F (3°C) for the refrigerator.
Turning Refrigerator On and Viewing Set Points
Press and hold POWER (ON/OFF) for 2 seconds.
NOTE:
After the refrigerator is turned on, the Over Temperature
audio alarm and indicator light will activate every
1 hours until the refrigerator and freezer temperatures
are below 48°F (9°C) and 15°F (-9°C), respectively, or until
the alarm is turned off. To turn off the audio alarm and
indicator light, see "Master Alarm Reset."
The ON/OFF switch on the control shuts down the
cooling, fans and compressors as well as the control to
run. To turn the power off completely, use the power ON/
OFF switch located behind the top grille. See "Power ON/
OFF Switch."
Viewing the Celsius Temperatures
Press °C SELECT touch pad. The negative sign (-) will light
up. To redisplay degrees Fahrenheit, press °C SELECT again.
NOTE: If the freezer temperature is below zero, the negative sign
next to the freezer display will light up. This is normal.

temperatures before other adjustments are made.

Press the refrigerator or freezer PLUS (+) or MINUS (-) key
pad until the desired temperature is reached.
