REFRIGERATORUSE
In order to ensure proper temperature, you need to permit proper
airflow in the refrigerator. As shown in the illustration, cool air
enters through the refrigerator wall and moves down. The air then
recirculates through the vent near the bottom.
Setting the control
For your convenience, your refrigerator control is preset at the
factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the
control is still preset to the mid-setting as shown.
NOTE: To turn your refrigerator off, turn the refrigerator control to
the setting shown. Your product will not cool when the
refrigerator control is set to the off position.

Adjusting the control
Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before adding
food. It is best to wait 24 hours before putting food into the
refrigerator. The control is set correctly when milk or juice is as
cold as you like. Move the dial one setting at a time and wait 24
hours between adjustments.
IMPORTANT: If you add food before the refrigerator has cooled
completely, your food may spoil. Turning the Temperature Control
to a colder (higher) than recommended setting will not cool the
compartment any faster.
NOTE: During high humidity, moisture may form on the outside of
the refrigerator. To prevent rust, dry the refrigerator's exterior and
reset the Temperature Control to a colder (higher) setting.
Power interruptions
If the electricity in your house goes off, call the power company
and ask how long it will be off.
If the power will be off less than 4 hours, keep the refrigerator
door closed to help foods stay cold.
If the power will be out for more than 24 hours, use up any
perishables and freeze other items.
Do not block any of these vents with food packages. If the
vents are blocked, airflow will be prevented, and temperature and
moisture problems may occur
IMPORTANT: To prevent odors and drying out of food, wrap or
cover foods tightly.
