CONTROLS AND SETTINGS
NOTE

just the control to Recommended. After
24 hours, adjust the controls as needed.
IMPORTANT
Adjusting the refrigerator temperature
control to OFF turns o the compressor
and prevents the refrigerator from cool-
ing, but does not disconnect the power
to the light bulb and other electrical
components. To turn o power to your
refrigerator, you must unplug the power
cord from the wall outlet.
Cool Down Period

refrigerator to operate with the doors
closed for at least 8 hours before loading
it with food.
Refrigerator and Freezer
Controls (some models)
Temperature Adjustment
Adjust the temperature gradually: adjust
the knob in small increments, allowing the
temperature to stabilize.
• For colder temperatures, adjust the
control toward Coldest.
• For warmer temperatures, adjust the
control toward Cold.
Adjusting the refrigerator control
will change temperatures in both
compartments. The auxiliary freezer
control can be left at the factory preset
(*Recommended) or adjusted as desired;
it has no eect on electrical power to the
refrigerator.
To maintain temperature, a fan circulates
air in the refrigerator and freezer
compartments. For good circulation, do
not block cold air vents with food items.
