REFRIGERATOR USE

Using the Controls
For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the
controls are still preset. The Refrigerator Control and the Freezer
Control should both be set to the “mid-settings.”

IMPORTANT:
Your product will not cool when the REFRIGERATOR Control
is set to OFF.
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.
Adjusting Controls
NOTE: Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before
adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food into
the refrigerator. The settings indicated in the previous section
should be correct for normal household refrigerator usage. The
controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like
and when ice cream is firm.
Slide the control one setting to the right to make the
compartment colder.
Slide the control one setting to the left to make it less cold.
If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer,
use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Wait at least
24 hours between adjustments.
