OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
IMPORTANT: Before operating this appliance, make sure it has been properly installed according to the appliance’s Owner’s Manual. The control center is located on the front of the ice and water dispenser.
TEMPERATURE CONTROLS
For your convenience, your temperature controls are preset at the factory. When you first install your refrigerator, make sure the controls are still set to the recommended set points as shown.
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.
-
When the power is on, the temperature display shows the set point temperature of the compartment.
-
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.
Adjust Set Points
The first touch of the (+) or (-) touchpad displays the current temperature
set point.
Press the (+) or (-) touch pads until the desired temperature set point is
displayed.
NOTE: Except when first turning on the refrigerator, do not adjust either
temperature control more than one setting at a time. Wait 24 hours between
adjustments for the temperature to stabilize.
Adjusting the Controls
The refrigerator control adjusts the refrigerator compartment temperature. The
freezer control adjusts the freezer compartment temperature.
If you need to adjust the temperature in either the refrigerator or freezer
compartment, use the settings listed in the chart below as a guide.
| CONDITION: | TEMPERATURE ADJUSTMENT: |
|---|---|
| Refrigerator too cold | Refrigerator setting 1° higher |
| Refrigerator too warm | Refrigerator setting 1° lower |
| Freezer too cold | Freezer setting 1° higher |
| Freezer too warm / too little ice | Freezer setting 1° lower |

power to the refrigerator.

DOOR ALARM
The Door Alarm feature sounds a chime every few seconds when the refrigerator
door has been left open for 5 continuous minutes. The chime will sound until
the door is closed or Door Alarm is turned off.

HUMIDITY CONTROL
The Humidity 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 Humidity Control is
on.
- Press Humidity Control to turn on the door heater. Press Humidity Control again to turn off the heater. The LED will be illuminated when Humidity Control is on.

Off: To turn the dispenser light off, press the Light button a third time.
