About the temperature controls.
To change the temperature, press and release the
WARMER or COLDER pad. The SET light will come
on and the display will show the set temperature.
To change the temperature, tap either the
WARMER or COLDER pad until the desired
temperature is displayed. Refrigerator temperatures
can be adjusted between 34°F and 44°F and the
freezer temperatures can be adjusted between
–6°F and +6°F.
Once the desired temperature has been set,
the temperature display will return to the actual
refrigerator and freezer temperatures after 5
seconds. Several adjustments may be required.
Each time you adjust controls, allow 24 hours for the
refrigerator to reach the temperature you have set.
The temperature controls are preset in the factory at 37°F for the
refrigerator compartment and 0°F for the freezer compartment.
Allow 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize to the preset
recommended settings.
The temperature controls can display both the SET temperature
as well as the actual temperature in the refrigerator and freezer.
The actual temperature may vary slightly from the SET
temperature based on usage and operating environment.
Setting either or both controls to OFF stops cooling in both the
freezer and refrigerator compartments, but does not shut off
electrical power to the refrigerator.
NOTE: The refrigerator is shipped with protective film covering
the temperature controls. If this film was not removed during
installation, remove it now.
Locking the Controls
(on some models)
This feature allows you to lock the controls
so the settings cannot be changed.
To lock the controls:
Set the controls to the desired settings.
Press and hold the lock pad for
3 seconds.
When the controls are locked, the indicator
light will come on and the control settings
will not be displayed.
To turn the cooling system off, tap the WARMER pad
for either the refrigerator or the freezer until the
display shows OFF. To turn the unit back on, press the
COLDER pad for either the refrigerator or freezer.
The SET light will illuminate on the side you
selected. Then press the COLDER pad again (on the
side where the SET light is illuminated) and it will
go to the preset points of 0°F for the freezer and
37°F for the refrigerator. Setting either or both
controls to OFF stops cooling in both the freezer
and refrigerator compartments, but does not shut
off electrical power to the refrigerator.
To unlock the controls:
Press and hold the lock pad for 3 seconds.
After unlocking the controls, the settings
will be displayed, the lock indicator light
will go out and the settings can be changed.
