• INSTRUCTIONS, located in your appliances Owner’s Manual, before operating this appliance.

For your convenience, your refrigerator and freezer controls are preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure that the both the refrigerator and freezer controls are still set to the “mid-setting.” This will be indicated with three illuminated bars.
IMPORTANT:

• 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 set points 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, first check the air vents to be sure they are not blocked before adjusting the controls.

• The preset settings should be correct for normal household usage. The controls are set correctly whenmilk or juice is as cold as you like and when ice cream is firm.

• Wait at least 24 hours between adjustments. Recheck the temperatures before other adjustments are made.
