REFRIGERATOR USE
Using the Controls
Your refrigerator has two controls that affect the temperature. The
Temperature control is located at the top front of the refrigerator
compartment and the Airow control is located on the back wall
of the freezer compartment.
IMPORTANT:
■ The recommended setting should be correct for normal
household refrigerator use. The controls are set correctly
when milk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream
is rm.
■ Wait 24 hours for your refrigerator to cool completely before
adding food. If you add food before the refrigerator has
cooled completely, your food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the refrigerator and freezer temperature
controls to a colder than recommended setting will not cool
the compartments any faster.
■ If the temperature is too warm or too cold in the refrigerator
or freezer, rst check the air vents to be sure they are not
blocked before adjusting the controls.
Temperature Control
For your convenience, the Temperature control is preset at the
factory. When you rst install your refrigerator, make sure the
control is still preset as shown.
Cooling Off/On
■ Move the dial control to the word OFF. To turn cooling back
on, move the dial control to the desired temperature setting.
NOTE: Neither compartment will cool when the control is set to
OFF.
Adjusting the Temperature Control
If you need to adjust the temperature in either the refrigerator or
freezer compartment, use the settings listed in the chart below as
a guide.
NOTE: Except when starting the refrigerator, do not adjust the
control more than one setting at a time. Wait 24 hours between
