Section 3 Mechanical Control

Temperature Control

The temperature control is located inside the refrigerator
compartment. The temperature is factory preset to
provide satisfactory food storage temperatures. However,
the temperature control is adjustable to provide a range
of temperatures for your personal satisfaction. If a
colder temperature is desired, turn the temperature
control knob toward COLDEST and allow several hours
for temperatures to stabilize between adjustments.

Defrost Timing

An automatic 30 minute defrosting period is initiated
after every 12 hours of compressor running time. During
the defrosting period, a thermostat will switch the
defrost heater off after the frost on the evaporator has
melted. The defrost thermostat closes at 10ºF and opens
at 50ºF.
