Refrigerator Use; Ensuring Proper Air Circulation; Using The Controls - Kenmore 10657076603 Use & Care Manual

REFRIGERATOR USE
In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit air to
flow between the two sections. Cold air enters the bottom of the
freezer section and moves up. It then enters the refrigerator
section through the top vent. Air then returns to the freezer as
shown.
To turn refrigerator on and view set points:
• Press and hold ON/OFF for 2 seconds.

To view the Celsius temperatures:
• Press the °C SELECT touch pad. The indicator will light up.
NOTE: If the freezer temperature is below zero, the indicator light
next to the freezer display will light up.
Do not block any airflow vents. If the vents are blocked, airflow
will be obstructed and temperature and moisture problems may
occur.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any
odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor
transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
Your model may have Digital Controls, Electronic Controls or
Slide Controls.
IMPORTANT:
• The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. The Freezer Control adjusts the freezer
compartment temperature.
• Wait 24 hours after you turn on the refrigerator before you put
food into it. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled
completely, your food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer Controls to a
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.
Digital Controls
For your convenience, your controls are preset at the factory.
When installing your refrigerator, make sure that the controls are
still preset to the mid-settings as shown. The digital control panel
is located at the top of the refrigerator compartment and enables
you to view the temperature control set points.
NOTE: The factory recommended set points are 0°F (-18°C) for
the freezer and 37°F (3°C) for the refrigerator.
Adjusting Digital Controls
NOTE: Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments. Recheck the
temperatures before other adjustments are made.
To adjust set point temperatures:
• Press the refrigerator or freezer up or down arrow until the
desired temperature is reached.
