Using Your Refrigerator

To obtain the best possible results from your refrigerator, it is important that you operate it properly. This section

tells you how to set the controls, remove and adjust the features in your refrigerator, and how to save energy.

Setting the controls

The controls for your refrigerator are located on the

upper rear wall of the refrigerator section. The

FREEZER control regulates the temperature in the

freezer section, and the REFRIGERATOR control

regulates the temperature in the refrigerator section.

When the FREEZER control is turned to off, neither

the REFRIGERATOR nor FREEZER sections will cool.

When you plug the refrigerator in for the first time:

1. Set the FREEZER control to 4 (recommended

setting). Freezer control settings range from

1 (warmest) to 7 (coldest).

2. Set the REFRIGERATOR control to 4 (recom-

mended setting). Refrigerator control settings range

from 1 (warmest) to 7 (coldest).

Give the refrigerator 24 hours after connecting to cool

down completely. After that, you can adjust the con-

trols as needed. The setting indicated above should be

correct for normal household use. Your controls will be

set correctly when your milk and juice are as cold as

you like and your ice cream is firm.

Changing the control settings

If you need to adjust temperatures in the refrigerator or

freezer, use the settings listed in the chart below as

a guide. If you have any questions, call our Consumer
