OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to
persons, read the IMPORTANT SAFETY
INSTRUCTIONS, located in your appliance’s Owner’s Manual, before
operating this appliance.
IMPORTANT: Before operating this appliance, make sure it has been
properly installed according to the appliance’s Owner’s Manual.
Your refrigerator has an internal control panel, located at the top of the
refrigerator compartment.
IMPORTANT:
■ The recommended settings 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 firm.
■ 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 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,
first check the air vents to be sure they are not blocked before adjusting the
controls.
TEMPERATURE CONTROLS
For your convenience, the temperature control is preset at the factory. When
you first install your refrigerator, make sure the control is still set to the
recommended setting of 3 snowflakes. Press the Temp button to display the
desired number of snowflakes from 1 snowflake (least cold) to all 5 snowflakes
(coldest).
NOTE: Except when starting the refrigerator, do not adjust the control
more than one setting at a time. Wait
24 hours between adjustments for the temperature to stabilize. When adjusting
temperature set points, use the following chart as a guide.
| CONDITION | TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT |
|---|---|
| Refrigerator too cold | Fridge Temp one snowflake less |
| Refrigerator too warm | Fridge Temp one snowflake more |
| Freezer too cold | Freezer Temp one snowflake less |
| Freezer too warm / too little ice | Freezer Temp one snowflake more |
COOLING ON/OFF
Your refrigerator and freezer will not cool when cooling is turned off. Follow
the directions specific to your model.
■ To turn cooling off, press and hold both the Fast Cool and Moisture Control
buttons at the same time for 3 seconds. When cooling is off, “Cooling Off”
will appear on the display screen.
■ To turn cooling back on, press and hold both the Fast Cool and Moisture
Control buttons at the same time for 3 seconds. When cooling is on, “Cooling
Off” will disappear and the previously selected settings will appear on the
display screen.
CONTROL PANEL LOCK
The control panel can be locked to avoid unintentional changes to the
settings.
NOTE: The lock feature does not shut off power to the refrigerator. It
simply deactivates the controls.
■ Press and hold Lock for 3 seconds to lock the controls. The Lock icon will
illuminate when the control panel is locked.
■ Press and hold Lock again for 3 seconds to lock the controls.
DOOR ALARM
The Door Open icon lights up whenever either door is opened.
When either door is open for 5 minutes and cooling is on, an alert tone will
sound three times, and the Door Open icon will flash seven times. This pattern
will repeat every 2 minutes until all the doors are closed properly. The
feature then resets and will reactivate when either door is left open again
for 5 minutes.
■ 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 Open icon
will still be displayed on the dispenser control panel.
■ Both doors must be fully closed to turn off the Door Open icon.
FAST COOL
The Fast Cool feature assists during times of high refrigerator use, full
grocery loads or temporarily warm room temperatures.
Press Fast Cool to set the freezer and refrigerator to the coldest temperature
settings. Press Fast Cool again to return to the selected temperature set
point.
■ The Fast Cool icon will be illuminated while the refrigerator is in Fast
Cool mode.
■ The Fast Cool feature will turn off automatically after 24 hours.
MOISTURE CONTROL
The moisture control feature turns on a heater to help reduce moisture on the
door hinge seal.
Use in humid environments or when you notice moisture on the door hinge seal.
The refrigerator uses more energy when Moisture Control is on.
To turn on/off the moisture control feature, press and hold Moisture Control
for 3 seconds.
AIR FILTER STATUS
The filter reset control allows you to restart the air filter status tracking
feature each time you replace the air filter. See “Install Air Filter” in the
owner’s Manual.
■ Press and hold Air Filter for 3 seconds, to reset the air filter status to
Good. The air filter icon will turn blue.
