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.

Disabling Sounds
• To turn off all dispenser and control sounds, press and hold
ICE and FILTER at the same time for 3 seconds.
• To turn all sounds back on, press and hold ICE and FILTER at
the same time for 3 seconds again.
NOTE: The display screen on the dispenser control panel has a
backlight, which will turn off automatically when the control
buttons have not been used for 30 seconds or more. When the
backlight is off, the first press of a control button will only
re-activate the backlight, without changing any settings. Within
30 seconds after the backlight has been re-activated, additional
presses of control buttons will change the applicable settings.
The control can be adjusted to properly chill meats or vegetables.
The air inside the pan is cooled to avoid "spot" freezing and can
be set to keep meats at the National Livestock and Meat Board
recommended storage temperatures of 28 ° to 32°F (-2 ° to 0°C).
The convertible vegetable/meat drawer control comes preset at
the lowest meat setting.
To store meat:
Set the control to one of the three MEAT settings to store meat at
its optimal storage temperature.
To store vegetables:
Set the control to VEG to store vegetables at their optimal
storage temperatures.
NOTE: If food starts to freeze, move the control to the left (less
cold). Remember to wait 24 hours between adjustments.
You can control the amount of humidity in the moisture-sealed
crisper. Adjust the control to any setting between LOW and
HIGH.
LOW (open) for best storage of fruits and vegetables with skins.
HIGH (closed) for best storage of fresh, leafy vegetables.
Cool air from the freezer is directed to the refrigerator door bin
directly beneath the vents.
NOTE: The dairy compartment and can rack are not associated
with the Chilled Door Bin feature.
Chilled Door Bin Control
The chilled door bin control is located on the left-hand side of the
refrigerator compartment.
A .....
A. Chilled door bin control
Slide the door chill control to the left to reduce the flow of
cold air to the bin and make it less cold.
Slide the door chill control to the right to increase the flow of
cold air to the bin and make it colder.
Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the
following options: the ability to select either crushed or cubed
ice, a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, or a
lock option to avoid unintentional dispensing.
NOTES:
• The dispensing system will not operate when the freezer door
is open.
• After connecting the refrigerator to a water source, flush the
water system. Use a sturdy container to depress and hold the
water dispenser lever for 5 seconds, then release it for
5 seconds. Repeat until water begins to flow. Once water
begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the
dispenser lever (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) for an
additional 2 minutes. This will flush air from the filter and
water dispensing system. Additional flushing may be required
in some households. As air is cleared from the system, water
may spurt out of the dispenser.
• Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill
water.
• Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the
first three batches of ice produced.
