REFRIGERATOR USE
There are two refrigerator compartment doors. The doors can be
opened and closed either separately or together.
There is a vertically-hinged seal on the left refrigerator door.
• When the left side door is opened, the hinged seal
automatically folds inward so that it is out of the way.
• When both doors are closed, the hinged seal automatically
forms a seal between the two doors.
The temperature controls are located at the top front of the
refrigerator or freezer compartments.
For your convenience, the temperature controls are preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the
controls are still set to the recommended setting as shown.

Your model has either Electronic or Digital Controls. Follow the
instructions specific to your model.
IMPORTANT:
• Wait 24 hours for your refrigerator to cool completely before
adding food. If you add food before the refrigerator has
cooled completely, your food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer temperature
controls to a colder than recommended setting will not cool the
compartments any faster.
• The recommended settings should be correct for normal
household refrigerator use. The controls are set correctly when
milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
• 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.
Adjusting Controls
The REFRIGERATOR control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. The FREEZER control adjusts the freezer compartment
temperature.
If you need to adjust the temperature in either the refrigerator or
freezer compartment, use the settings listed in the chart as a guide.
To Adjust Set Point Temperatures:
• Press the Up Arrow or Down Arrow touch pads until the desired
temperature set point is displayed.
NOTE: Except when first turning on the refrigerator, do not
adjust either temperature control more than one setting at a
time. Wait 24 hours for the temperature to stabilize between
adjustments.
