Ensuring Proper Air Circulation

In order to ensure proper temperatures, you need to permit air
to flow between the two sections. Cold air enters the bottom of
the freezer section and moves up. It then enters the refrigerator
section through the top vent. Air then returns to the freezer as
shown.
Do not block any airflow vents. If the vents are blocked, airflow
will be obstructed and temperature and moisture problems may
occur.
IMPORTANT: Because air circulates between both sections, any
odors formed in one section will transfer to the other. You must
thoroughly clean both sections to eliminate odors. To avoid odor
transfer and drying out of food, wrap or cover foods tightly.

Using the Controls

For your convenience, your refrigerator controls are preset at
the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure
that the controls are still preset. The Refrigerator Control and the
Freezer Control should both be set to the "mid-settings."
IMPORTANT:
Your product will not cool when the REFRIGERATOR Control
is set to OFF.
The Refrigerator Control adjusts the refrigerator
compartment temperature. The Freezer Control adjusts the
freezer compartment temperature. Settings to the left of the
mid­setting make the temperature less cold. Settings to the
right of the mid­setting make the temperature colder.
Wait 24 hours before you put food into the refrigerator. If
you add food before the refrigerator has cooled completely,
your food may spoil.
NOTE: Adjusting the Refrigerator and Freezer Controls to a
higher (colder) than recommended setting will not cool the
compartments any faster.

REFRIGERATOR USE

Adjusting Controls
Give the refrigerator time to cool down completely before
adding food. It is best to wait 24 hours before you put food into
the refrigerator. The settings indicated in the previous section
should be correct for normal household refrigerator usage. The
controls are set correctly when milk or juice is as cold as you like
and when ice cream is firm.
If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or freezer,
use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide. Wait at
least 24 hours between adjustments.
CONDITION/REASON:
REFRIGERATOR too warm
FREEZER too warm/
too little ice
REFRIGERATOR too cold
FREEZER too cold
Depending on your model, you may have one or more of the
following options: the ability to select either crushed or cubed
ice, a special light that turns on when you use the dispenser, or a
lock option to avoid unintentional dispensing.
NOTES:
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.
Turn the control right (clockwise) to make the compartment
colder.
Turn the control left (counterclockwise) to make it less cold.
To turn the cooling system off, turn the Refrigerator Control
counterclockwise until it reaches the OFF position.

Water and Ice Dispensers

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. Also, take large amounts of ice from the ice
bin, not through the dispenser.
