USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR ENSURING PROPER AIR CIRCULATION SETTING THE CONTROLS (on some models) In order to ensure proper temperatures, air must flow between the refrigerator and freezer sections. As shown in the illustration below, cool air enters through the bottom of the freezer section and moves up. Most of the air then flows through the freezer section vents and recirculates under the freezer floor. The rest of the air enters the refrigerator section through the top vent.
USING YOUR REFRIGERATOR ADJUSTING CONTROL SETTINGS SETTING THE CONTROLS Your refrigerator has two controls that let you regulate the temperature in the freezer and refrigerator compartments. Initially set the REFRIGERATOR CONTROL at 4th position 37°F (3°C) and the FREEZER CONTROL at 4th position 0°F(-18°C) Leave it at this setting for 24 hours (one day) to stabilize. Then adjust the compartment temperature as desired.

CONNECTING THE WATER LINE BEFORE YOU BEGIN Two 1/4” outer diameter compression nuts and 2 ferrules (sleeves) to connect the copper tubing to the shutoff valve and the refrigerator water valve. Unless it is performed by Sears service this water line installation is not warranted by the refrigerator or icemaker manufacturer. Follow these instructions carefully to minimize the risk of expensive water damage.
CONNECTING THE WATER LINE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS (CONTINUED) 7. CONNECT THE TUBING TO THE VALVE Place the compression nut and ferrule (sleeve) for copper tubing onto the end of the tubing and connect it to the shutoff valve. Make sure the tubing is fully inserted into the valve. Tighten the compression nut securely. 4. FASTEN THE SHUTOFF VALVE Fasten the shutoff valve to the cold water pipe with the pipe clamp.

TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE The defrost timer will click when the automatic defrost cycle begins and ends. The thermostat control (or refrigerator control, depending on the model) will also click when cycling on and off. UNDERSTANDING SOUNDS YOU MAY HEAR Your new refrigerator may make sounds that your old one didn’t make. Because the sounds are new to you, you might be concerned about them. Most of the new sounds are normal.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE COMPRESSOR MOTOR SEEMS TO RUN TOO MUCH Check if... Then... The refrigerator that was replaced was an older model. Modern refrigerators with more storage space require more operating time. The room temperature is hotter than normal. The motor will run longer under warm conditions. At normal room temperatures, expect your motor to run about 40% to 80% of the time. Under warmer conditions, expect it to run even more often.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE ICE HAS OFF-TASTE OR ODOR Check if... Then... The icemaker was recently installed. Discard first few batches of ice to avoid discolored or off-flavored ice. The ice has been stored for too long. Throw away old ice and make new supply. The food has not been wrapped tightly in either compartment. Rewrap foods since odors may migrate to the ice if food is not wrapped properly. The water supply contains minerals such as sulfur.
TROUBLESHOOTING GUIDE AUTOMATIC ICEMAKER DOES NOT WORK Check if... Then... Icemaker power switch in the O (off) position. Move the switch to the I (on) position. Water supply turned off or not connected. See the Connecting the Water Line section on page 25. Freezer compartment too warm. Wait 24 hours for the freezer to reach its ideal temperature. Piled up cubes in the storage bin cause the icemaker to shut off. Level cubes by hand.
