INTERIOR TEMPERATURE CONTROL

NOTICE: NEW FREEZING ROOM TEMPERATURE FEATURE
YOUR REFRIGERATOR HAS BEEN DESIGNED TO INCLUDE A FEATURE THAT WILL
PREVENT THE CONTENTS OF THE REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT FROM FREEZING,
EVEN IF THE ROOM TEMPERATURE IS BELOW FREEZING. THIS IS A TOTALLY
AUTOMATIC SYSTEM AND WILL REQUIRE NO ACTION ON YOUR PART. THIS SYSTEM
PROVIDES THIS FEATURE BY PERIODICALLY TURNING THE LIGHTS IN THE
REFRIGERATOR COMPARTMENT ON AND OFF. THE WARMTH FROM THESE LIGHTS
WILL AUTOMATICALLY KEEP THE FOOD FROM FREEZING. THIS SYSTEM OPERATES
AT ROOM TEMPERATURES FROM 15°C. TO -5°C. THE SYSTEM WILL TURN ON THE
LIGHTS ONLY WHEN NEEDED. IF YOU SHOULD NOTICE THAT THE REFRIGERATOR
LIGHTS ARE ON, EVEN THOUGH THE DOOR IS CLOSED, THIS IS THE SYSTEM AT
WORK, KEEPING YOUR FRESH FOOD FROM FREEZING.
How to Prevent Freezing
NOTE: IF YOU EXPECT THE ROOM TEMPERATURE TO FALL BELOW FREEZING,
AND YOUR REFRIGERATOR HAS THE ICE/WATER DISPENSER FEATURE
BUILT INTO THE FREEZER DOOR, OR HAS AN ICEMAKER, THEN YOU
SHOULD PERFORM THE FOLLOWING STEPS. THIS DEACTIVATES THE
ICE/WATER SYSTEM AND WILL PREVENT THE EXTERNAL WATER LINES
FROM FREEZING.
1. Disconnect power to the refrigerator.
2. Close valve on water line connecting refrigerator to main water supply.
3. Position a container under the refrigeration connection to collect any spillage and disconnect inlet
water supply line from refrigerator. Also collect water from the inlet supply line.
4. Position the container under the plastic outlet tube that supplies the icemaker (on Refrigerator
side) to collect any water spillage and disconnect the tube.
5. Position the container under the plastic outlet tube that supplies the water tank (on Freezer side)
to collect any water spillage and disconnect the plastic outlet tube.
6. Reconnect the icemaker and water tank tubes to the water inlet valve.
7. Turn off the icemaker (inside freezer) by moving sensor arm to the "UP" locked position.
8. Remove the front grille.
9. Position a container under the water line connectors located under the freezer, to collect any
spillage, and disconnect the two ends of the water line.
10. Allow water to drain from the two ends.
11. Reconnect the two ends of the water line.
12. Install the front grille.
13. Reconnect power to the refrigerator.
How to Restore to Normal Condition
NOTE: WHEN THE ROOM TEMPERATURE RISES ABOVE FREEZING, YOU CAN
REACTIVATE YOUR ICE/WATER DISPENSER SYSTEM BY PERFORMING
THE FOLLOWING STEPS:
1. Disconnect power to the refrigerator.
2. Reconnect the inlet water supply line to the refrigerator.
3. Open the valve on water line connecting refrigerator to main water supply.
