NOTE
When rst turning refrigerator on, adjust
control to recommended. After 24 hours,
adjust the controls as needed.
IMPORTANT
Adjusting the refrigerator temperature control
to “OFF” turns off the compressor and pre-
vents the refrigerator from cooling, but does
not disconnect the power to the light bulb and
other electrical components. To turn off power
to your refrigerator, you must unplug the
power cord from the wall outlet.
CONTROLS
Cool Down Period
To ensure safe food storage, allow the
refrigerator to operate with the doors closed
for at least 8 hours before loading it with food.

(some models)
Temperature Adjustment
Adjust temperature gradually: adjust the knob
in small increments, allowing the temperature
to stabilize.
• For colder temperatures, adjust the knob
towards Coldest.
• For warmer temperatures, adjust the
knob towards Cold.
Adjusting the refrigerator control will change
temperatures in both compartments. The
auxiliary freezer control can be left at the factory
pre-set (*recommended) or adjusted as desired;
it has no effect on electrical power to the
refrigerator.
To maintain temperatures, a fan circulates air
in the refrigerator and freezer compartments.
For good circulation, do not block cold air vents
with food items.
