When adjusting temperature set points, use the following chart as a guide.
CONDITION:
REFRIGERATOR too cold
REFRIGERATOR too warm
FREEZER too cold
FREEZER too warm /
Too little ice
The set point range for the refrigerator is 33°F to 42°F (0°C to 6°C). The
set point range for the freezer is 9°F to 5°F (23°C to 15°C).
Cooling On/Off
Your refrigerator and freezer will not cool when cooling is turned off.
To turn cooling off, press and hold the LOCK and RESET FILTER buttons
at the same time for 3 seconds.
IMPORTANT: To avoid unintentionally locking the dispenser or
changing other settings, be sure to press both buttons at exactly the
same time.
When cooling is off, "COOLING OFF" will appear on the display
screen.
Press and hold LOCK and RESET FILTER for 3 seconds again to turn
cooling back on.
Additional Features
Accelerated Ice Production
The Accelerated Ice feature assists with temporary periods of heavy ice
usage by increasing ice production.
IMPORTANT: This feature only works if the ice maker is turned on. See "Ice
Maker and Storage Bin."
To turn on the feature, press ACCELA-ICE. When the feature is on, the
Accelerated Ice icon will appear on the dispenser display screen.
The Accelerated Ice setting will remain on for a minimum of
90 minutes unless manually turned off.
To manually turn off the feature, press ACCELA-ICE again, or adjust
the freezer temperature set point. The Accelerated Ice icon will
disappear when the feature is off.
NOTE: If increased ice production is desired at all times, change the
freezer set point to a lower setting. Setting the freezer to a colder
temperature may make some foods, such as ice cream, harder.
Door Ajar Alarm
The Door Ajar Alarm feature sounds an alarm when the refrigerator or
freezer door is open for 5 minutes and the product cooling is turned on.
The alarm will repeat every 2 minutes. Close both doors to turn it off. The
feature then resets and will reactivate when either door is left open again
for 5 minutes.
NOTE: To mute the audible alarm while keeping the doors open, such as
while cleaning the inside of the refrigerator, press any button on the control
panel. The alarm sound will be temporarily turned off, but the Door Ajar
icon will still be displayed on the dispenser control panel.

Disabling Sounds
To turn off all dispenser and control sounds, press and hold WATER/
ICE and RESET FILTER at the same time for 3 seconds.
IMPORTANT: To avoid unintentionally changing other settings, be sure
to press both buttons at exactly the same time.
To turn all sounds back on, press and hold WATER/ICE and RESET
FILTER at the same time for 3 seconds again.
Water and Ice Dispensers
NOTES:
The dispensing system will not operate when either door (refrigerator
or freezer) is open.
Allow 24 hours for the refrigerator to cool down and chill water.
Allow 24 hours to produce the first batch of ice. Discard the first three
batches of ice produced. Wait 72 hours for full ice production.
The display screen on the dispenser control panel will turn off
automatically and enter "sleep" mode when the control buttons and
dispenser pad have not been used for 2 minutes or more. While in
"sleep" mode, the first press of a control button will only reactivate the
display screen, without changing any settings.
Flush the Water System
Air in the water dispensing system can cause the water dispenser to drip.
After connecting the refrigerator to a water source or replacing the water
filter, flush the water system. Flushing the water dispensing system forces
air from the water line and filter, and prepares the water filter for use.
NOTE: As air is cleared from the system, water may spurt out of the
dispenser.
1.
Using a sturdy container, depress and hold the water dispenser pad for
5 seconds, then release it for 5 seconds.
2. Repeat Step 1 until water begins to flow.
3. Once water begins to flow, continue depressing and releasing the
dispenser pad (5 seconds on, 5 seconds off) until a total of 3 gal. (12 L)
has been dispensed.
Additional flushing may be required in some households.
The Water Dispenser
IMPORTANT:
Dispense at least 1 qt (1 L) of water every week to maintain a fresh
supply.
If the flow of water from the dispenser decreases, it could be caused
by low water pressure.
With the water filter removed, dispense 1 cup (237 mL) of water. If
1 cup of water is dispensed in 8 seconds or less, the water pressure
to the refrigerator meets the minimum requirement.
If it takes longer than 8 seconds to dispense 1 cup of water, the
water pressure to the refrigerator is lower than recommended. See
"Water Supply Requirements" or "Problem Solver" for
suggestions.
