OPERATING YOUR APPLIANCE

 Temperature Control Panels

Refrigerator Temperature Control

Freezer Control

 Setting the Temperature Control

• Your refrigerator has one control for regulating the temperature. The temperature control is located

on the middle of the refrigerator compartment. As well as a control knob in the freezer to balance

the cold air distribution between the two compartments.

• The temperature control in the refrigerator compartment will control the actual cooling cycle

whereas the control knob in the freezer compartment will adjust the distribution of the cold air

between the freezer and the refrigerator compartments.

• The first time you turn the unit on, adjust the temperature control knob to “MAX” or COLDEST” in

the freezer compartment and “7” in the refrigerator compartment and run for at least 4 hours before

placing foods inside. This will ensure the freezer cabinet is thoroughly chilled and the refrigerator

compartment will be stabilized before food is placed. Then return selector to “MED” position in the

freezer compartment and “4” in the refrigerator compartment.

• Adjust the temperature control to the setting that best suits your needs. The setting of “4” in the

refrigerator compartment and “MED” in the freezer compartment will distribute the cold air equally

between both compartments which should be appropriate for home or office refrigerator use.

• If you at any time want to distribute a larger amount of cold air to the freezer for example is a large

amount of food has been added to the freezer, simply move the controller to the “MAX” position until

the desired temperature has been attained then return the controller to the “MED” position.

• If you at any time want to distribute a larger amount of cold air to the refrigerator section, for

example to quickly cook down if a large amount of fresh food has been added, simply move the

controller in the freezer to the “MIN” position until the desired temperature has been attained and

then return the controller to the “MED” position.
