IMPORTANT:
• The refrigerator control adjusts the refrigerator compartment
temperature. The freezer control adjusts the freezer
compartment temperature.
• Wait 24 hours after you turn on the refrigerator before you put
food into it. If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled
completely, your food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer controls to a
lower (colder) setting will not cool the compartments any
faster.
• 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.
• The preset settings should be correct for normal household
usage. The controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as
cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.
• The actual temperature may differ from the display when a
door is open for an extended period of time.
NOTE: The factory recommended set points are 0°F (-18°C) for
the freezer and 37°F (3°C) for the refrigerator.
Turning Refrigerator On and Viewing Set Points
• Press the Cooling (ON/OFF) touch pad.
COOLING
NOTE:
• After the refrigerator is turned on, the Over Temperature audio
alarm and indicator light may activate every 1_/2hours until
the refrigerator and freezer temperatures are below 48°F (9°C)
and 15°F (-9°C), respectively, or until the alarm is turned off.
To turn off the audio alarm and indicator light, see "Master
Alarm Reset."
The ON/OFF touch pad on the control panel shuts down
refrigerator functions such as cooling, lighting, fans and
compressors. To turn the power off completely, use the
power ON/OFF switch located behind the top grille. See
"Power On/Off Switch."
Viewing the Celsius Temperatures
• Press °C touch pad. To redisplay degrees Fahrenheit, press
°C again.
NOTE: If the freezer temperature is below zero, the negative sign
next to the freezer display will light up. This is normal.
Do not block any of these vents with food such as soda, cereal,
bread, etc. Do not block any airflow vents. If the vents are
blocked, airflow will be obstructed 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 avoid odor
transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.
