Adjusting Control Settings - Kenmore 795.6900 Series Use & Care Manual

Identify your control type
Refrigerator control: position 1 to 7
(32°F to 47 °F or 0°C to 8°C)
The higher the number setting, the colder the refrigerator
compartment will become.
Freezer control: position 1 to 7
(-6°F to 8 °F or -21°C to -13°C)
When the setting is at a higher number, the freezer
compartment becomes colder.

ADJUSTING CONTROL SETTINGS

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 for the first time. The mid-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.
The refrigerator control functions as the thermostat for the
entire appliance (refrigerator and freezer sections.) The
higher the number setting, the longer the compressor will
run to keep the temperature colder. The freezer control
adjusts the cold air flow from the freezer to the
refrigerator. Setting the freezer control to a lower
temperature keeps more cold air in the Freezer
compartment to make it colder.
If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or
freezer, start by adjusting the refrigerator first. Wait 24
hours after the refrigerator adjustment to check the
freezer temperature. If it is too warm or too cold, then
adjust the freezer control as well.
Use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide.
Always remember to wait at least 24 hours between
adjustments.
