ALLOWING COOLING tImE BEfORE USE

To ensure safe food storage, allow your refrigerator to operate with the doors closed for at least 8 to 12 hours before placing food
inside. During this cooling period, you do not need to adjust the controls, which are preset at the factory.

SEttING COOLING tEmPERAtURES

Your refrigerator comes with a state-of-the-art electronic digital control system. The system’s control panel is located at the top of
the the fresh food compartment.
The two digital displays on the left half of the control panel indicate the current settings or temperatures of your freezer and fresh
food compartments. The models with a 2-digit temperature display are for reference only, and do not display the current accurate
compartment temperature. Should you desire to see what the current accurate temperature is, place a separate thermometer
inside the freezer or fresh food compartment in the desired location.

(Single Digit Display - Features may vary.)

press the

Up (Cold) or Down (Colder) button closest

to the display. The first time you press the button, the
display shows current setting you entered. Each press
of the button after that changes the setting by one.
The display shows your new setting momentarily, then
changes back to the current temperature.
