ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION

In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow
between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As
shown in the illustration below, air enters at top of
freezer and circulates down. From bottom of freezer, air
is forced up to top of refrigerator. Air enters refrigerator
through top vent, then circulates and exists at bottom,
where it returns to freezer.

MULTI-FLOW

• Multi-Flow means powerful and effective cooling
operation. This is especially noticeable when new food
is placed in the refrigerator compartment.
• If water or foreign substances enter the cool air vent
while cleaning, efficiency will be lowered. In addition, if
gasket is damaged, efficiency may be lowered because
of escaping cool air.
Do not block any of cool air vents with food
packages. If the vents are blocked, airflow will be
interrupted 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 prevent odor transfer and drying
out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly. (See the Food
Storage Guide section for details.)

SETTING THE CONTROLS

• Your refrigerator has two controls that let you regulate
the temperature in the freezer and refrigerator
compartments.
• Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL at 3°C
and the FREEZER CONTROL at –18°C. Leave it at
this setting for 24 hours (one day) to stabilize. Then
adjust the compartment temperature as desired.

USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR

EXPRESS FRZ.
• Refrigerator control: 0°C to 8°C
The lower the number setting, the colder the
refrigerator compartment will become.
• Freezer Temp Control: -21°C to -13°C
When the setting is at a lower number, the freezer
compartment becomes colder. The refrigerator
compartment becomes warmer because less cold air
flows into the refrigerator.
NOTE: If you want to off display, press and hold
EXPRESS FRZ. key and FREEZER key over 5
seconds at the same time.
NOTE: Touch display once to activate, then touch
again to change the settings or activate a function. If 10
seconds has passed since the display has been
touched, it will be necessary to touch "once" again to
reactivate.
This is to prevent accidental display setting changes.
• EXPRESS FRZ. : Press the EXPRESS FRZ. button
and the LED will turn on. This function will remain
activated for 24 hours and increase the cooling speed
of the freezer and the amount of ice produced.
• Dispenser Lock : Press and hold the LOCK button
for 3 seconds to lock the dispenser. When it is locked,
the dispenser will not operate. To unlock, press and
hold the LOCK button for 3 seconds.
• Filter Reset : It displays in months the number of
months left to exchange the filter from the moment
power is connected to the refrigerator. If you have
changed the filter after 6 months of use, press and
hold the FILTER button 3 seconds or more and the
filter display will be initialized with a buzzing sound.
NOTE: The average life of the filter is 6 months.
